Скачать или смотреть Uganda Anti-Homosexuality Bill - Webinar 25th May 2023

The Anti-Homosexuality Act passed by Uganda’s parliament during 2023 represents a renewed attack on the human rights of LGBTIQ+ people. The law not only increases penalties for ‘homosexual’ acts but also criminalises ‘promotion of homosexuality’ with potential imprisonment up to 20 years.

As a leader in Uganda’s LGBTIQ+ movement since before the first Anti-Homosexuality Act (2014), Dr. Frank Mugisha gave a presentation in this webinar on 25 May 2023 (prior to the Act being signed into law) discussing the situation within wider Ugandan and international contexts, including comment on international solidarity strategies. The presentation is introduced by Dr. Matthew Waites, Reader in Sociology at the University of Glasgow, and a conversation follows.
