Fiji IDAHO Report 2012

Activists in Fiji persisted with events despite police at the cancelling of a permit that was given to march in commemoration of IDAHO. One-hundred and forty people attended a panel discussion on the 2012 IDAHO theme of “Fighting homo/transphobia IN and THROUGH education” at the University of the South Pacific‘s Oceania Centre for Arts, Culture and Pacific Studies.
The discussion concluded with a 90-minute open forum on LGBTIQ rights, religion, culture, education, media, family, respect and love. Activists also launched Digital and Written Stories aimed at sharing life experiences and knowledge among the marginalized women’s community.
