Join Us: Wednesday 14th
Join Us: Wednesday 14th September for a special LGBT event with GLEN.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transsexual Human Rights Defenders from around the world, including Armenia, Guyana, Thailand, Malawi, Sierra Leone, and Albania will be there to meet Irish activists and press at a special event as part of the Dublin Platform. Most Human Rights Defenders cannot speak openly about their activities for fear of being targeted, so this is a unique opportunity to meet those who are working to change the world. LGBT human rights defenders are doubly discriminated against. They are targeted because of who they are as well as what they do. They are discriminated against, attacked and sometimes killed. David Kato, a previous Dublin Platform participant, was brutally murdered in his home in Uganda in January this year.
