  3. Strengthening connections between LGBT Human Rights Groups, government agencies, international organizations, embassies, and private sector supporters
  4. Focusing on progress made and continuing legal challenges of transgender communities
The goals of the October 2016 Global LGBT Forum in Thailand are to:
  • Explore regional and global challenges and how they intertwine
  • Enable LGBT rights activists to present their specific contexts and best practices
  • Reinforce innovative approaches for cross-border and transnational exchange
