THE GUYANA EQUALITY FORUM (GEF)
The Guyana Equality Forum (GEF) is a network of civil groups working cohesively to achieve equal rights and justice for all Guyanese. The GEF was formed as a collaborative response to addressing human rights abuses against sexual and gender minorities and vulnerable groups in Guyana. The Society Against Sexual Orientation Discrimination (SASOD) serves as its secretariat. Civil society groups involved with the GEF combat discrimination by:
• Documenting patterns and incidences of discrimination against LGBT persons and other vulnerable groups;
• Challenging discrimination and human rights violations against LGBT persons and other vulnerable groups; and
• Advocating for inclusive legal reforms which protect vulnerable persons from all forms of discrimination and realize the right to equality. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dK5h5Oz4TLc&feature=youtu.be
