LGBT Story Project
Free writing practice for research findings part 1
What have you got after four months traveling? A good but incomplete list of activists in Southeast Asia and China 100 plus conversations city hopping feeling: founders are hard to meet; scholars are somewhere hard to find; activists are the most visible community representatives; the largest effort taken at regional level is UNDP; There are many people working around these issues but the field is not organic yet. The infrastructure is not there. We are still at the stage of trying to figure out what’s happening on the ground Timeline: past, present and future How do you define past and present: with the emergence of LGBT movement Collective political demands I can’t say countries; I feel cities are hard to represent the whole country Situations in cities Chinese influence (Confucianism, Buddhism, and local belief) Development perspective: age difference which will lead to different needs In formative years Know more, but feel unsure about everything In china, there is no LGBT community, people even don’t imagine that way. It’s too big too hard too far away What’s the situation of development of LGBT communities in SEA and greater china?
