Multiple organizations and event organizers in Tunisia are trying to create a healthy discussion around sexuality and gender. Mawjoudin, Damj, Chouf and Falgatna as well as many Tunisian activists and human rights defenders are fighting for the rights of the LGBTQ community that is still being discriminated against, not only by an archaic penal law but also vague morality legislations in addition to social stigma and intolerance. We had the honor to speak to non-binary queer activist Weema Yahyaoui Askri to get an idea about queer rights in Tunisia, how far the fight has come and what is being done to protect members of the LGBTQ community.
