Homophobia in Uganda

0 - Default Title
Description
The LGBTI community in Uganda faces various forms of discrimination and hate campaigns on a daily basis. Human rights violations include outing homosexuals and public calls for their death. In Uganda, LGBTI people have to hide and are often forced to pretend to be heterosexual. LGBTI people are frequently victims of harassment and abuse, violent attacks, arbitrary arrests, extortion, forced evictions, corrective rape, rejection by their families, expulsion from school, torture and murder. In Uganda, homosexual behaviour is criminalised and human rights violations against LGBTI people are carried out on a legal basis. In February 2014, Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni signed a very strict law against homosexuality. Although this law was withdrawn a few months later, LGBTI people in Uganda live in constant insecurity due to the harsh and violent social climate.
