The Gay and Lesbian Equality Network (GLEN) is an Irish gay rights group, based in Dublin, Ireland. The organisation was founded in 1988 by Kieran Rose and Christopher Robson.〔http://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/death-of-gay-rights-activist-1.1337290〕 GLEN focuses on achieving change in legislation and social policy that will achieve full equality and inclusion for lesbian, gay and bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in Ireland, and protection from all forms of discrimination. The board of directors comprises: Kieran Rose (chair);〔 Maura Molloy; Arthur Leahy; Muriel Walls; Ciarán O'Cuinn; Nathalie Weadick; and Dr. Fergus Ryan. ==Official opening== On 3 April 2006, then Taoiseach Bertie Ahern performed the official opening of GLEN's new offices in Fumbally Court in Dublin 8. This was a moment of some historical significance as he was the first head of an Irish Government to visit an LGBT organisation. The Taoiseach also launched GLEN's five-year strategic plan entitled "Building Sustainable Change" which set out the priorities of the organisation going forward, the main one being the enactment of legislation providing for the legal recognition of same-sex relationships. In a speech to assembled guests, Mr Ahern declared that "Sexual orientation cannot, and must not, be the basis of a second-class citizenship. Our laws have changed, and will continue to change, to reflect this principle."
