UNJUST, UNEQUAL, UNSTOPPABLE: FIJI LESBIANS, BISEXUAL WOMEN, TRANSMEN AND GENDER NON CONFORMING PEOPLE TIPPING THE SCALES TOWARD JUSTICE

The anger and pain of LBT women and GNC people is palpable in all sections, as is the defiance and determination not to be driven from society. The report closes with various strategies of resistance, joy and celebration, more information on upcoming work of DIVA for Equality, and next steps for further reports, analysis and action. The report identifies a few key recommendations to State and non-state actors, and will assist in identification of immediate and medium term strategies by local Hubs of LBT women around Fiji. It will guide the work of DIVA for Equality, LBT and LGBTQI led groups, the Government of Fiji, UN agencies, development institutions, and other stakeholders in Pacific and other small island states. Overall, this report insists that individual negotiations of autonomy and freedom, development capabilities and reconfigurations of State and society are all necessary and urgent if we are to achieve universal, indivisible human rights and social, economic, ecological and climate justice for all, including LBT women and gender variant people in Fiji.
