Like you, I’ve been watching in horror at the brutality of the laws that have been introduced in Uganda in recent months and seeing how these laws have affected the lives of our global LGBTIQA+ family in East Africa.
I want to give a voice to those whose lives have been turned upside down by these laws and whose very lives are threatened by living outside of the closet.
Come and join me and the amazing Paul Canary Kanyamu on this episode of Connection over Coffee with The Loneliness Guy, and let’s listen to how life is for our family in East Africa and what asks us to do to support our LGBTIQA+ family there.
About Paul Canary Kanyamu:
Paul Canary Kanyamu was born in western Uganda and he’s 26 years old.
Paul’s a Humanitarian Volunteer and Human Rights Defender.
He fights for and champions the rights of LGBTIQA+ persons including Queer Refugees.
Paul is very active on LinkedIn and that’s how we found each other. He highlighted the struggles of living in Kakuma Refugee Camp and brought attention to the dangers to life experienced daily. He was resettled in Canada under that country’s refugee resettlement program in April 2023. Paul now wishes to study and gain his Master’s Degree in Social Work, International Development, and Disaster Management and continues to advocate for the welfare and wellbeing of LGBTIQA+ people in East Africa.
