Hivos supports LGBT partner organisations in developing countries
Launched in 1991, Hivos’ gay emancipation programme revolves around financial support, knowledge sharing, capacity building and lobby and advocacy on behalf of LGBT organisations and groups in developing countries. Hivos supports over 50 partner organisations in Africa, Asia and Latin America that fight for gay and lesbian rights.
To protect the safety of our partners we cannot name all LGBT organisations, particularly in Africa and West Asia, so the list of partner organisations below is not complete. HIV/Aids organisations that implement specific programmes in the field of MSM (men who have sex with men) and WSW (women who have sex with women) are also included on the list. Hivos also has a number of projects under its own management in the LGBT programme.
