<p>LGBTQ+ persons in Kenya and across the world have often been on the receiving end of violence. They suffer stigma, discrimination, physical and verbal abuse, assault, harassment, eviction from their home, loss of job, suspension or expulsion from school etc. Though it is often said that one’s sexual orientation, gender identity or expression (SOGIE) is a non-issue, the violence meted upon said person is undeniably a big issue as it affects their quality of health and life.</p>
<p># the state and religion Violence is further perpetrated against LGBTQ+ persons given the existence of laws that criminalize sex between two consenting same sex adults. These laws create a misguided perception in society that LGBTQ+ individuals are criminal; a perception that subsets of the state and religious institutions advance to further perpetuate human rights violations and acts of violence.</p>
