SUMMARY:Legal advocacy strategies to address hate speech in Botswana
DESCRIPTION:As court victories for the rights of marginalised people grow in Southern Africa\, so too do hate crimes and hate speech\, especially in countries without specific legal protections.

SUMMARY:Estratégias jurídicas para combater o discurso de ódio em Angola
DESCRIPTION:À medida que aumentam as vitórias judiciais pelos direitos das pessoas marginalizadas na África Austral\, também aumentam os crimes de ódio e o discurso de ódio\, especialmente em países sem proteções jurídicas específicas.

SUMMARY:The evolving journey for SRHR: Legal environment affecting key populations in Uganda
DESCRIPTION:SALC has published a Policy Brief\, ‘An overview of the legal environment affecting key African populations. The policy brief reflects on the changes in the legal environment affecting key populations\, particularly vulnerable and marginalised women\, young people\, LGBTQI+ and sex workers in Africa\, over the past 20 years. The Policy Brief highlights some of the gains made through legislative changes and progressive court judgments that uphold the sexual and reproductive health rights of key populations. However\, as highlighted in the Policy brief\, serious barriers still exist that hurt the enjoyment of SRHR\, including the use of the law to criminalise status and identity\, and legal restrictions on access to sexual and reproductive health services. \nAs part of initiatives to address the human rights challenges of key populations\, and improve the enjoyment of SRHR\, SALC is hosting human rights training webinars for Human Rights defenders\, activists and individuals to enhance knowledge of their rights.
