International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia: DA reaffirms LGBTIQ+ support

May 17th marks the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia.

As a party for all, we take this opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to the realisation and protection of the rights to self-determination and freedom of expression, irrespective of one’s sexual orientation or gender identity.

This day comes at a time when members of the LGBTIQ+ community face increasingly hostile and intolerant treatment, particularly le***an and transgender individuals, who are particularly vulnerable.

On this day, we are reminded of the profound importance of solidarity among the communities of sexual and gender minorities, civil society, and alliances with other vulnerable groups with which we intersect; such as those living in economic hardship, women, children and persons with disabilities.

While our Constitution enshrines these rights, much social change is still necessary to minimise hate crimes, empower the LGBTIQ+ community and to form alliances of hope and support for those who do not conform to majority sexual and gender norms.
