Social Media Strategist

WHO WE ARE

ELLA Global Community is a registered charity and social enterprise in Mallorca which works to create greater visibility of all queer women and nonbinary people of all backgrounds in order to enable them to identify and promote their specific needs. ELLA works to provide a platform through which queer women and nonbinary people can feel inspired to strengthen their community and raise awareness about their identity and challenges faced as a result of discrimination and inequality.

ELLA recognizes these definitions:

Queer =  an identity label that is non-specific towards a person's sexual orientation; this could be lesbian, bisexual, asexual, sapiosexual, polysexual and so on.
Backgrounds = race, generation, class, ability, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, faith and so on.

ELLA values:

Authenticity – We believe that everyone should be free to be true to themselves and have the right to assert their own sexual orientation, gender identity and expression.
Solidarity – We believe that amongst women and nonbinary people, we have to stand in solidarity with one another; listen to, cooperate and inspire each other, regardless of our sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, race, class, faith, ability and so on.
Courage – No change has ever been achieved without the actions of a courageous few. As a minority often discriminated against for not being heterosexual, it takes tremendous courage to assert your sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and take a stand on behalf of the LGBTQI+ community.
Inclusivity – Social attitudes and beliefs can only be changed by involving and educating all communities. Inclusivity, equality and acceptance of queer women, trans women, femmes, nonbinary people and individuals embracing femininity cannot be achieved by only preaching to the choir.  
Intersectionality – We believe that queer women and nonbinary people of all races, generations, classes, abilities, gender identities and expressions, faiths, and other backgrounds should be welcomed, valued and respected. We know that in order to create an inclusive and safe space, we must also acknowledge, understand and embrace the intersections between these demographics.
