| - Mainstreaming refers to a social movement within the vampire race, in which vampires attempt to integrate themselves into everyday human society. The mainstreaming movement was made possible by the invention of synthetic blood, which prompted vampires to reveal their existence to humanity, in an event known as The Great Revelation. The Great Revelation was informally known as "coming out of the coffin," and was orchestrated by Roman, the Guardian of the Vampire Authority. Attitudes towards mainstreaming within the vampire community were mixed, with some, particularly older vampires, regarding "mainstreamers" as traitors, who have lost all sense of their priorities.
- Mainstreaming came to prominence in Europe in the mid 1990s because of gender mainstreaming which had itself been mainstreamed as a concept largely due to the support of large institutions (UN, European Union etc). However, its origins are from the battle in schools in the USA over the rights of children with disabilities to be educated in mainstream schools.

| - Mainstreaming refers to a social movement within the vampire race, in which vampires attempt to integrate themselves into everyday human society. The mainstreaming movement was made possible by the invention of synthetic blood, which prompted vampires to reveal their existence to humanity, in an event known as The Great Revelation. The Great Revelation was informally known as "coming out of the coffin," and was orchestrated by Roman, the Guardian of the Vampire Authority. Attitudes towards mainstreaming within the vampire community were mixed, with some, particularly older vampires, regarding "mainstreamers" as traitors, who have lost all sense of their priorities. The defining characteristic of vampires who seek to mainstream is subsidence on Tru Blood. While some mainstreamers may have a monogamous human lover whom they feed on, most mainstreamers eschew human blood entirely. Another common trait of mainstreaming vampires is the desire to live apart from other vampires. Either alone, or with humans. Following the death of Roman Zimojic in November, 2009, the mainstreaming movement was officially abolished.
- Mainstreaming came to prominence in Europe in the mid 1990s because of gender mainstreaming which had itself been mainstreamed as a concept largely due to the support of large institutions (UN, European Union etc). However, its origins are from the battle in schools in the USA over the rights of children with disabilities to be educated in mainstream schools. The term was used extensively in the [EQUAL]Community Initiative where it was used to describe a process whereby pilot projects become integrated into [ESF] and [ERDF] Structural Fund programmes and into policy both at EU level and Member State level. EQUAL institutionalised the mainstreaming process by structuring its programme in three phases the last of which was [Action 3] for mainstreaming and dissemination. [Action 1] was intended to last six months and was dedicated to programme design and partnership building, [Action 2] was normally for two years and was the main implementation phase. The three phase structure of equal along with its [Development Partnerships] structure were major drivers of innovation in the programme and appear to have produced good results despite early criticisms that the programme had a slow start.
