The Human Dignity Trust has produced a series of ground-breaking notes explaining how criminalisation interacts with various key areas of democratic values, good governance and well-being.
These notes highlight how crucial decriminalisation is for states to prosper and uphold their core democratic principles. They demonstrate the variety of lenses through which criminalisation’s damaging effects can be seen, from exacerbating HIV to harming businesses to undermining the rule of law.
In combination they make it abundantly clear that the decriminalisation of homosexuality must be a global priority.
