This report summarizes the outcomes of a Regional Learning Session on Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Sex Characteristics (SOGIESC), organized by the ASEAN SOGIE Caucus, in partnership and with the support of Save the Children and UNDP Being LGBTI in Asia. According to the report, the learning session served as a safe space for meaningful dialogue between child rights advocates, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ) advocates to find synergies for cross-movement collaboration. The workshop took into consideration some existing developments how child rights discourse and frameworks can be useful in furthering LGBTIQ human rights in Southeast Asia. Likewise, the activity enabled LGBTIQ advocates to raise concerns faced by LGBTIQ and gender-diverse children and to generate ideas how such can be addressed using child rights and broader human rights frameworks.
