As a member of the Global Advisory Committee of Dignity Network Canada, the Asia Feminist LBQ Network was honoured to join fellow advisors at the International Roundtable for advocacy meetings with Canadian parliamentarians and Global Affairs Canada.

Together, we called on Canada to strengthen its global leadership in advancing the human rights of LGBTQI+ people. At a time when hard-won rights are being rolled back around the world, we need urgency, courage, and principled leadership more than ever.

Thank you, Dignity Network Canada / Réseau Dignité Canada, for creating this important space for dialogue, solidarity, and collective action. 🌈✊🏽

Time and time again, bisexual women in Asia have consistently been providing their labor and care throughout various sectors of activism, movements, and communities. Yet, their issues have been constantly sidelined and under-researched, preventing them from having the discussion and storytelling space they need to form their sense of selves and community.

Access our report, The Edge of Q***r: Lessons in Liberation from Bisexual Asian Women to learn more about bisexual Asian women from the first in-depth survey on literature and research projects focused on bisexual women's rights in Asia and a living journey woven from interviews and conversations with 18 bisexual Asian women and nonbinary human rights.

AFLN was honoured to be part of the Abortion & Reproductive Justice Conference (ARJC) in Nairobi, Kenya, from 16–18 June.

We are deeply grateful to MAMA Network for bringing together activists, healthcare providers, researchers, artists, funders, and advocates from across the world to exchange ideas, build strategy, strengthen relationships, and collectively imagine more just and equitable futures for abortion and reproductive justice.

One of the highlights for us was connecting with fellow q***r advocates during an informal q***r gathering, who are creating space to build solidarity, share experiences, and envision a reproductive justice movement that is truly inclusive of LBQ communities and all q***r people.

We leave Nairobi inspired, energised, and committed to strengthening feminist and q***r movements across Asia and beyond.

Happy International Nonbinary Day! 💛🤍💜🖤

Today is an important day to remember that nonbinary community has always been an important part of our fabric of society. And just like the meaning of “nonbinary”, there’s no one “correct” terms and experiences for anyone other than our own living experiences.
