PrideWatch LightUp Taiwan

PrideWatch LightUp Taiwan was an initiative started by me as part of contribution to the Marriage Equality Coalition. The platform allows any voter in Taiwan who wants to support Marriage Equality to register with his/her address, and subsequently a dot of light will appear on the website’s Taiwan map showing that location. The user can then immediately check whether his/her elected official’s stance on this issue, and use the provided information to contact the politicians directly to voice their concern.

We then used the website to persuade the politicians that support for marriage equality is wide-spread in Taiwan, and that they should listen to what their constituency has to say. We also used our newsletter to inform those who registered the latest updates on the Marriage Equality Process.

This website is hosted by PrideWatch, which is an LGBT lobbying organization that is also part of the Marriage Equality Coalition.
