Eli Saro Imran 🏳️⚧️ The criminalisation of trans identities is a barrier to the HIV response. In Uganda where the abhorrent Anti-Homosexuality Act is in place, the impact is already clear. UK must further condemn the AHA. And address urgent need for asylum for LGBT+ people who’s lives are at risk.

Eli Saro Imran 🏳️⚧️ Digital spaces can offer sanctuary but are also often targeted by anti-LGBT+ groups. #Privacy laws are not universally strong, nor is enforcement of these laws. It’s not just governments who must act, but social media companies who hold much of this data, adds Tabitha Ha.

Eli Saro Imran 🏳️⚧️ Tabitha Ha Thanks to all who attended this roundtable on Trans Rights, HIV and Access to Health Care & to Liz Barker for chairing. Discussion of solutions ranging from visibility, ending stigma & discrimination, trans-led health programmes, Intl pressure to uphold human rights & more!



A barrier for feminist campaigning: 'Meta rejected multiple adverts by Restless Development to publicize the project mentioning feminism... because women’s rights is categorized as a “social issue” by Meta, requiring special restrictions' #WomenDeliver devex.com/news/opinion-t…

"The Anti-Homosexuality Act violates the health and human rights of Ugandans and is an affront to human dignity. It must be nullified in full." - Tabitha Ha on the Constitutional Court verdict to uphold all but 4 provisions of the AHA in Uganda. stopaids.org.uk/2024/04/08/sto…

It’s time to bridge the digital divide, and it will take all of us to make a lasting impact on digital health and rights for everyone. Read this reflective blog article by young members of the Digital Health and Rights Project community advisory team: kelinkenya.org/towards-people…… #UNGA2024
