Advocacy

We advocate for the integration of the rights of persons of diverse
SOGIESC into national and regional governmental bodies and policies.

ASC works closely with the community, grassroots, governments, policymakers, and human rights organizations to integrate SOGIESC rights into policy. We do that through Strategic Alliances with Government, Civil Society, and human rights groups; Public Policy Advocacy; Lobbying; Public Engagement; Participation in National and Regional Policy Dialogues; Monitoring and Reporting Progress.

We take leadership roles in creating spaces for and supporting capacities of LGBT human rights defenders in doing advocacy with relevant mechanisms and bodies of ASEAN. We also support local groups in engaging with UN human rights mechanisms through provision of technical assistance, advice and funding.
