[Still under construction, but for one overview of Singapore's LGBT community, including organisations, see Roy Tan's comprehensive listing here. The knowledge architecture of this page is meant to facilitate sense-making in terms of understanding needs, assessing gaps and why they are there, and offer leads to possible solutions. Where there are existing repositories and resource directories, we need only to point towards them and act as an index. Where there are none, then it is useful to collate and catalogue.]

Overview

This overview provides a synopsis of the current knowledge base. Having considered all the information in the LGBTQ pages: 1) What are the priority issues that deserve attention, 2) What are opportunity areas that community or voluntary organisations can already take action on, and 3) What knowledge gaps deserve further investigation?

Definitions

LGBTQ

[identify target group and define who is included or excluded in this category: you want to get it just right: not too broad that it includes those you may not want to include, and not too narrow that it excludes those you want to help. You might be too exclusive: e.g. defining ‘vulnerable’ seniors as ‘low-income’, but you may want to include those without family support. Therefore, you may want to define vulnerable as ‘poor and/or with low family support’. You might be too inclusive: e.g. ‘latchkey kids’ may include those who have working parents, or those with serious behavioural problems.]

Areas of Needs / Desired Outcomes

Guideline on how to populate this section on need area / desired outcomes

  • Desired outcomes: [Elaborate on needs in terms of what outcomes is desired for the target group. Needs should NOT be identified in terms a specific solution—eg youths (do not) need mentoring, dying seniors (do not) need hospice care. These are specific solutions that can be inserted in the Resources column. )—Instead, they should be defined in more ‘perennial terms’ because the solutions can change but the needs remain; I don’t need a CD player, or even an mp3 player, I need ‘portable music’ and currently the best solution seems to be Spotify]

[Also indicate the size of this specific need & projected demand were data is available]

  • Synopsis: [To insert]
Resources Gaps Ideas
[e.g. existing services or programmes both private or public; relevant policies and legislation] [Some gaps could be due to 1) capacity of solution to meet size & projected demand, 2) quality of solution (effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability, scalability etc.), 3) accessibility (geographical, cost to client)] [Based on the specific gaps and reasons for those gaps, what might be solutions that can help? Insert existing but untapped resources, or new ideas that have not been considered yet]
