Astraea Hosts Funders’ Briefing for Palestinian Gay Women (ASWAT) and Gays and Lesbians of Zimbabwe (GALZ)

WHERE
USA- New York

Please join Astraea in welcoming and honoring four inspiring leaders from two of our grantee partner organizations: Palestinian Gay Women (ASWAT) and Gays and Lesbians of Zimbabwe (GALZ).

ASWAT and GALZ exist in countries facing similar situations of violence, harassment and persecution. Where the LGBTQI communities are treated with unequal human rights and in a lot of cases no human rights whatsoever. The queer communities in both countries exist under daily threat of judgment and brutality.

As a part of their four-country, seven-city tour together, ASWAT and GALZ have partnered with international communities to build momentum and support for their joint efforts.

Friday, September 12
11am – 12:30pm
Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice
116 East 16th Street, 7th Floor
