3/ At the same time, LGBTI+ people in Türkiye continue to face systemic discrimination, event bans, and rising political hostility. Removing these measures is an important step — but it is only one step.
December 1, 2025 at 1:02 PM
2/ This outcome is the result of the tireless work of LGBTI+ organisations, human rights defenders, and community members across Türkiye. Your resistance made this possible.

6/ The proposed amendments will violate Kazakhstan’s international human rights commitments as well as new political and economic agreements, and will fuel violence.

Therefore, TGEU urges Kazakhstan to drop the proposed so-called ‘LGBT propaganda’ amendments.
November 27, 2025 at 2:02 PM
5/ These incidents come amid politically motivated repression linked to their human rights work and the introduction of anti-LGBT amendments in Kazakhstan, even before the law has formally entered into force.

4/ For example, on November 21–22, homophobic groups repeatedly attacked queer, feminist activists Ardz Tursynkhan, Zhanar Sekerbayeva, and Temirlan Baimash. The activists later reported that they were detained without explanation and tortured.

3/ Local activists continue to mobilise, hold public hearings, and challenge procedural violations, but the situation remains urgent and rapidly developing.

2/ A local lawyer writes that parallel legal changes are being made that could encourage ordinary citizens to help the police identify ‘offenders.’ This creates the risk of turning citizens into informants, triggering the risk of witch hunts and vigilantism.
