Our Programs
|
Campaigns |
Arus Pelangi campaigns for LGBT issues, including issues affecting the basic rights and violations thereof of LGBT. Through the campaigning program, Komunitas Gay Lesbian Biseseksual Indonesia hopes to raise the awareness fo the public to the issues facing the LGBT communities and heighten the perception and general acceptance of LGBT within society. Additionally, Komunitas Gay Lesbian Biseseksual Indonesia hopes to push the issue in the government in order to increase the level of formal protection of LGBT within government policy and the law. |
|
Advocacy |
Komunitas Gay Lesbian Biseseksual Indonesia is currently involved in two main streams of advocacy for LGBT:
those related to legal representation and those related to public policy. For advocacy relating legal cases which emerge affecting the LGBT communities Komunitas Gay Lesbian Biseseksual Indonesia extends legal counselling and representation. This is strongly needed in Indonesia where LGBT are largely unprotected by the law. |
|
Education |
Arus Pelangi's Education Program is focused on empowering LGBT communities accept themselves and defend theirs rights. On the other side of the coin, Komunitas Gay Lesbian Biseseksual Indonesia also tries to raise the public awareness of LGBT issues with the hopes of increasing the acceptance and opportunities for LGBT in the formal sector and everyday life. |
|
Organizing |
Arus Pelangi is actively organising various LGBT groups which have formed across Indonesia with the hopes of forming a federation which defends LGBT rights with strength and numbers. This is upheld by Komunitas Gay Lesbian Biseseksual Indonesia's official legal classification, that of Association, which allows us to expand through formal and informal membership, making partnerships easily facilitated. |
