Uganda, framing it as a 'wicked problem' in international relations. It explores the complexities and challenges of advocating for LGBTI rights within a context marked by cultural, political, and social resistance. The author analyzes how the EU navigates these challenges through its policies and organizational structures, while also addressing the broader implications of human rights advocacy in post-colonial settings. The book is aimed at scholars and practitioners in international relations, human rights, and social policy, offering insights into the intersection of global norms and local practices.Generated by AI.Gay rightsGenerated by AIHuman rightsGenerated by AIGay rightsHuman rights306.760973Malmedie Lydia1585676MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910799233703321EU Promotion of Human Rights for LGBTI Persons in Uganda3871193UNINA
