Being LGBT is criminalized in 71 states, and at the global level, the situation
seems to be deteriorating; President Putin is responsible for stigmatization,
discrimination and persecution of LGBT persons in Russia. In Chechnya,
gay men are detained and placed in concentration camps, and in the USA,
president Trump is rapidly rolling back progressive policies introduced by
president Obama. In this debate, national and international experts on LGBT
rights will discuss how conservative forces have been able to gain such strong
momentum, how we most efficiently fight this trend, and work towards a
world where LGBT persons are no longer persecuted, discriminated against
and killed. Participants: Representatives from international LGBT organisations,
Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Danish Institute for Human Rights and Sex &
Samfund.
