IDAHOT panel discussion: Justice and Protection for All
Please join us for a panel discussion in celebration of the International Day Against Homophobia,Transphobia & Biphobia (IDAHOT). The theme for this year, Justice and Protection for All, reminds us that over the past decades, protection of LGBTQI+ people and all people with diverse sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions or sex characteristics has greatly expanded and this progress is well worth celebrating, but we must guard against complacency. 72 countries still criminalise same-sex sexual relations and even in SA, LGBTQI+ people still face
regular stigma and discrimination.
Discussion: Laws vs. Hearts and Minds: how is justice and protection for queer people best served?
Panelists:
- Geoffrey Ogwaro – Centre for Human Rights
- Moude Maodi-Swartz – OUT LGBT Wellbeing
- Rudo Chigudu – Centre for Human Rights, and
- Clara van Niekerk – UP & Out
Moderators: Pierre Brouard and Christi Kruger (CSA&G)
Date: 16 May 2018
Time: 12:30 – 14:00
