Conservative Think Tank Wields Behind-the-Scenes Influence in Anti-DEI Movement
- The 2024 Dublin Pride event will culminate on June 28th with a traditional parade celebrating the 10th anniversary of Ireland's marriage equality vote.
- This celebration occurs amid a broader decline in corporate sponsorships, linked to a global backlash against DEI and intensified US political pressures.
- More than a quarter of US multinational firms that previously sponsored Dublin Pride have pulled out this year, partly due to past threats of sanctions over DEI policies by the Trump administration.
- Jed Dowling, Pride's co-chief executive, reported that out of 42 US companies previously participating, a total of 12 have withdrawn their support this year.
- This shift in corporate backing suggests Pride events face funding challenges and must adapt amid ongoing political and cultural tensions surrounding inclusion efforts.
