Why Global Citizens Should Care
Members of the LGBTQ+ community experience discrimination and violence globally, and face imprisonment and even death in countries where homosexuality remains a crime. The United Nations’ Global Goal 10 calls for equality for all, and this cannot be achieved if LGBTQ+ rights are not protected. Join us in taking action to protect human rights around the world here.
Dozens of celebrities, politicians, and activists have published an open letter pledging solidarity for Ghana’s LGBTQ+ community, following a surge of anti-gay protest and discrimination.
