Gays, Lesbians May Exhibit At Next Year's ZITF

Gays and Lesbians of Zimbabwe (Galz) has said that it will apply to exhibit at next year’s Zimbabwe International Trade Fair (ZITF). This comes after sex workers, who were represented by the Sexual Rights Centre (SRC) were granted permission to exhibit at this year’s edition.

Galz director Chester Samba said

When I saw SRC participate at the ZITF, at least we were very encouraged as an organisation.

I am sure the SRC was trying to test the political waters under the new dispensation, this dispensation really needs to be tested. I am sure we will do the same next year but that will depend with what we want to achieve from exhibiting or whether the platform will be suitable for what we want as an organisation.

Galz is an organisation which strives for the attainment of full and equal human, social and economic rights in all aspects of life for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex (LGBTI) persons.
