In two years, hundreds of LGBTIQ+ Ugandans have faced arrest, violence, and evictionsAs Uganda‘s Anti-Homosexuality Act marks its second anniversary, the Human Rights Awareness and Promotion Forum (HRAPF) has published a new report showing a long and growing list of human rights violations targeting LGBTQI+ people. “These are not just numbers, they are fellow Ugandans and fellow human beings who, like any other citizen, have rights that must be protected,” says Ruth Amuron, a human rights advocate. “It is therefore imperative that we all join efforts and advocate for the annulment of the Anti-Homosexuality Act in order to save the dignity and protect the rights and safety of LGBTIQ persons in Uganda,” the report concludes. While the highest number of violations related to SOGIE occurred in Wakiso and Kampala Districts, many such violations were also reported from locations across the country. A particularly high number of violations were reported from Nakivale Refugee Settlement in Isingiro District, Western Uganda affecting largely LGBTQI+ refugees and asylum seekers.
