Report from 2014 program of the Salzburg Global LGBT Forum now online
The report from the May 2014 program of the Salzburg Global LGBT* Forum is now available online.
The Salzburg Global LGBT Forum was formed in June 2013 to establish a truly global, open and conducive space to reflect upon and advance the LGBT human rights discussion worldwide.
To ensure a sustainable follow-up to the Salzburg gathering, the German Federal Foreign Office, in conjunction with Salzburg Global Seminar, brought together, in Berlin, human rights leaders from China, India, Germany, Lebanon, Russia, South Africa, Syria, Uganda, and Venezuela for three days of consultations in May 2014 as part of the Salzburg Global session Salzburg Global LGBT Forum: Creating Long-Term Global Networks to Sustain LGBT Human Rights Organizations.
You can read more about the sessions and the Salzburg Global Fellows' recommendations in the report below.
*LGBT: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender. We are using this term as it is currently widely used in human rights conversations on sexual orientation and gender identity in many parts of the world, but we would not w ish it to be read as exclusive of other cultural concepts, contemporary or historical, to express sexuality and gender, intersex and gender-nonconforming identities.
