Forms of Discrimination of LGBT People in Ghana, Uganda, Russia and Norway. A report by ISFiT Research Group 1/2017

Abstract

This report is written and based on research conducted by the Research Group of the International Student Festival in Trondheim 2017 (ISFiT 2017). ISFiT is the world’s largest thematic student festival with the vision “to create a better future for young people in the world” . The festival has been held biennially since 1990, and each time invited hundreds of students from all over the world to Trondheim for ten days of workshops, dialogue, cultural arrangements, and more. The theme of ISFiT 2017 is “Discrimination, why?”, with the aim of gathering “students from different backgrounds and with different voices, to a dialogue where premises are different from what you are used to, and where you have to acquire perspectives and values you have never before been exposed to”.
