LGBT+ people were already vulnerable before the attack, and are now even more at risk of human rights abuses by Russian troops. Escaping is difficult, and the conditions are chaotic.

To kick off our five weeklong celebration, we started very close to our hearts for good luck. Our first #WOMANCRUSHWEDNESDAY is Kuchu Times Media Group Executive Director, Kasha Jacqueline Nabageresa.
After whole year of discussing about starting up a community led organisation for the Rural LGBT persons in the Rwenzori region due to dissatisfactory services from available KP led organisations. We finally had time off school and work to concentrate and kick-start the organisation.
The right to health and access to HIV services must always be protected, and health workers, representatives of civil society and their clients must never be targets in a conflict.
My heart bleeds for my community.
Kuchu Times Media Group interviewed some people who were at the beginning of the LGBT+ movement in Uganda who took us down memory lane and as we close the LGBTI history month we share the history of the movement.
The Joy and feeling of completeness that I had after the fast meeting I attended was so much that I don’t remember a day I have felt that happy ever again.
The three-day workshop taught among other things the importance of audience specialization, platform specialization and intentional content creation.
I remember having to deliver food door to door for LGBTQ Ugandans who reached out to me, this was a different experience for me because this time instead of them coming here at our office to meet with me, I was going to their homes.
The Lesbian, Bisexual and Queer women who attended the event got to enjoy “forbidden” things like holding hands.
