Sexuality and gender diversity rights in Southeast Asia are deeply
controversial and vigorously contested. Debate and protest have
been accompanied by both legislative reform and discriminatory
violence. These contradictory dynamics are occurring at a time when
the international human rights regime has explicitly incorporated a
focus on the prevention of violence and discrimination in relation
to sexuality and gender diversity. This Element focusses on the
need for such rights. This Element explores the burgeoning of civil
society organisations engaged in an emancipatory politics inclusive
of sexuality and gender diversity, utilising rights politics as a
platform for visibility, contestation and mobilisation. This
Element focusses on the articulation of political struggle through
a shared set of rights claims, which in turn relates to shared
experiences of violence and discrimination, and a visceral demand
and hope for change.
