A Knowledge Sharing Dialogue On Socio-Ethnic Diversity And Sexual Orientations (SOGISC)

Spring of Love is a grassroots organization working to promote peace and reconciliation, human rights, diversity and inclusion in Sri Lankan society. It carries out this work by sharing knowledge on Non-violent conflict transformation, Socio-Ethnic Diversity (SOGIESC) and Sexual and Reproductive Health. As a further step in taking this knowledge to grassroots community-based organizations, a knowledge sharing dialogue on Socio-Ethnic Diversity and Sexual Orientations (SOGISC) was held with the Community Brotherhood Organization on 29th August at the Community Brotherhood Organization’s office Negombo. At the event, knowledge was shared with volunteers and social activists engaged in various forms of social work and community-based activities on issues such as gender diversity, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, and myths related to gender diversity, as well as the laws and regulations that discriminate against individuals based on gender diversity.
