Out of the Shadows (Panel Discussion)

29 October, 2021 | 10:15 am - 11:25 am WAT

Free

Trans, Non-Binary and Intersex people often have to hide their gender identities in order to survive Nigerian society. But that is all changing. Social media and the internet have made it possible for marginalised individuals to find one another, to build communities and leading advocacy groups. Bisi Alimi will talk to Tiwa, Eudora Ogechukwu and Nell Thompson about being Trans, Non-Binary and Intersex in Nigeria, while touching on visibility, advocacy and the opening up of new spaces.
