Sayoni

Curious about how queer issues in Singapore are received in the United Nations? How did the Singapore government respond to Sayoni’s presentation on queer rights in front of an international community?

Join us on 17 August (Sat), 2-4pm, at an intimate community venue as we share our reflections from dialoguing with the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) earlier this year at Geneva 2024.

We have an exciting programme lined up for you:
– Introduction of speakers/panelists
– What’s the deal with UN Treaties? How do they catalyse change?
– Speaker presentations on Sayoni’s CEDAW report
– UN’s recommendations: Implications for LBTI issues in Singapore
– Panel discussion on post-CEDAW reflections
– Audience Q&A
