Queer People in Occupied Territories: Cases from Kherson
This talk is about the experiences of queer people living in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, with a focus on Kherson.
Using real-life cases, it shows how war, occupation, and strict control affect LGBTQ+ people’s daily lives — their safety, visibility, ability to stay true to their identity, and to keep in touch with their community.
The talk will cover:
Risks and survival strategies under occupation, including hiding one’s identity, internal and external displacement, and self-censorship.
Violence and threats faced by LGBTQ+ people, from psychological pressure and blackmail to direct repression by the occupying authorities.

Commits have stable ...

Motivation: While our democracy can be shaped by the people as they wish on paper, the population seems to be largely dissatisfied with political actions: - The handling of many crises appears to be inadequate - Urgent problems seem to be postponed - Democratic participation seems tedious and ineffective Dissatisfaction mixed with these perceptions can lead to the loss of ...
