I personally think it is absolutely foolish for USAID to think that trying some media-based mass psychological manipulation to change attitudes in LGBT-unfriendly places is a better use for that money than simply using it to protect, up to and including getting the hell out of there, actual citizens of that country who are LGBT and suffering as a result

It’s like “yea the religious police threatened to stone me to death again, can you get me the hell out of here, or help me conceal my identity or sexuality from them better to help me survive?”

USAID: Nah, but don’t worry, this kids tv cartoon might change the entire country’s perception of you! So this is better. It’s all about going for the “root cause” to fix problems!
