Beschreibung

Two years after the Sudanese people overthrew their dictator of three decades, the country finds itself in the middle of a fragile transition towards civilian rule. Protests calling for justice and human rights have continued, and in 2020, Minister of Justice Nasredeen Abdulbari promised that laws violating human rights in Sudan would be dropped. One of these reforms was to repeal the death penalty for homosexual acts. However, penalties still range between five years and lifetime in jail for consensual same sex relations and LGBT persons in Sudan remain marginalized, their freedom and rights restricted. Panelists are Ahmed Umar (contemporary artist, protagonist in "The Art of Sin"), representative of Shades of Ebony (Sudanese LGBTQI+ rights group), representative of Bedayaa (organisation working for LGBTQI+ rights in the Nile Valley area) and Tor-Hugne Olsen (CEO of International Planned Parenthood Federation Norway). Moderator is Rasha Younes - researcher of LGBTQI+ rights, Human Rights Watch. In collaboration with Sex og Politikk (IPPF Norway) and Human Rights Watch.
