The Caribbean Observatory Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) of the Caribbean Family Planning Affiliation<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

(CFPA) applauds the repeal of the buggery and gross indecency laws by the Republic of Barbados, confirming its commitment to upholding human rights for all.<\/p>\n

The oral decision was given by the high court and the written particulars are to be released in January 2023.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Following other historic rulings earlier this year in Antigua and Barbuda (July) and Saint Kitts and Nevis in (August), Barbados is<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

another milestone on the journey to a Caribbean where the sexual rights of its people are respected and protected.<\/p>\n

This judgement upholds the rights of consenting adults to engage in same-sex intimacy, personal privacy and protection from discrimination on the basis of sex.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The case was filed by litigants from Equals Barbados and supported by the Eastern Caribbean Alliance for Diversity and Equality (ECADE).<\/p>\n

\u201cThis decision is an important one, especially as it relates to sexual and reproductive health of the LGBTQ+ community as these<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

laws have perpetuated the stigma around sexual activities of queer folks, resulting in reduced access to quality treatment.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

This decision reflects the progress that Equals Barbados and other NGOs have made to improve access to sexual and<\/p>\n

reproductive services of the past few years and will provide the opportunity for us to continue this work.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Rapley – Equals Barbados
\n\u201cThis is is a great acknowledgment of the citizens of the country which will serve as a stepping stone in the whole Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights movement.<\/p>\n

As we know the fundamental decisions in one country will be felt across borders, waters and continents.\u201d Kenita Placide, ECADE<\/p>\n

Barbados joins Caribbean countries such as Saint Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, The Bahamas, Cuba, Haiti,<\/p>\n

The Dominican Republic, Belize, Trinidad and Tobago which have decriminalized same-sex sexual relations.<\/p>\n

In Suriname same-sex sexual relations were lawful since 1869.<\/p>\n

Currently, cases have been launched by civil society organisations and individuals in St. Vincent & Grenadines, Jamaica and Dominica.<\/p>\n

The Caribbean SRHR Observatory and CFPA stand in solidarity with all LGBTQ+ advocates and allies and support the move of<\/p>\n

Caribbean Governments to repeal all discriminatory laws that continue to marginalize and infringe upon the Human Rights of the LGBTQ+ community.<\/p>\n

The Caribbean observatory on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) continues to monitor and track progress in the region and advocate for not only the<\/p>\n

change of legislation but the transformation of harmful social norms in communities that continue discrimination against vulnerable populations.<\/p>\n
