Title The Transnational Anti-Gender Movement And Kyrgyzstan's About Non-Commercial Organizations Law: Systemic Violence Towards Women And Persons With Diverse Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, Gender Expression And Sex Characteristics (SOGIESC)
Summary Within this paper, I will discuss intertwined securitization of anti-gender discourse to the reinforcement of rising authoritarianist and populist regimes, Kyrgyzstan’s dynamics and “About Non-commercial Organizations” law—broadly known as the law on “foreign representatives”, its potential further consequences on freedom of organization and protection of gender minorities as well as worldly known practices in this field. I will further argue that it is a transnational movement which requires transnational response and organizations. I will be using scholarly articles on anti-gender movements in the world and Kyrgyzstan, illiberalism, and authoritarianism, sources from the network coalition from the organization where I work – Outright International. Outright works on the promotion of all women and LGBTI+ rights at the UN, it is a secretariat to the UN LGBTI Core Group and is part of several networks. My observations and discussions from the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW68), Outright Advocacy Week 2024 will serve as a testimony in this paper.
