ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD Between l April 2020 and 31 March 2021. and despite the global pandemic, the Trust completed number of major a￿l¥ltieS and achieved si8nrficant legal successes. a¢ross both our strategic litvdation and legisl8tive reform work to eradicate laws that criminalise, discriminate against and fail to adequately protect LGBT people. We also successfully implemented media and communications strategies in collaboration with our local civil society and government partners. Te¢hrtical legal assistt7rte In this period. Ihe Trust has been working actNely with hxal civil society, legal and government partners in 19 countries acr055 four regions of the world. New strategic human rights cases that we supported were filed in the courts of two countries, and we continued to support ongoing filed cases in eight jurisdictions. We also worked in an additional seven countries through research. stratey sessions. keal draftin& online trainings andlor consultations with a view to developing legal strategies to challenBe anti-LGBT laws in the courts. Despite lengthy court closures and disruptions during the year due to the pandemic. one decriminalisation case and one freedom of association case were argued in domestic first instance courts, with judgments in both expected in 2021. We achieved a signrficant victory againstjamaica at the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. in a case in which the Trust argued on behalf of an exiled gay man and lesbian that Jamaica's laws that criminalise consensual same-sex sexual conduct violate the American Convention on Human Rights. In what was the first case of its kind in the Inter-American human rights system. the Commission Page 6 THE HUMAN DIGNITY TRUST IUMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES accepted our arguments, found Jamaica in violation of its treaty obligations, and urged the government to repeal the offending laws and take additional steps to ensure LGBT people are protected a8ainst discrimination and V￿lence. Althou8h the Commission's recommendations are not enforceable, this landmark decision add5 pressure on the State to reform its laws and practice5, set5 new precedent for the entire Caribbean region and expands international law.

Hate Crime legislation or Equal Opportunities legislation, and to cr¥il Society or8anisation5 in five additional countrie5 to effectively analyse or advocate for legislative reform. The Trust has also provided support to civil society oTganisation5 in two countries to develop submissions to the UN'S Universal Periodic Review mechanism. The direct beneficiarie5 of ourwork- narne￿ the LGBT populations in the countries in which the Trust is active- totals approximately 17 million people globally. In the case of our legis18tive reform work. additional beneficiaries include tens of millions of other marginalised people such as women, children and persons with disabilities all of wllom wll directly benefrt from broad-based reforms to discriminatory or inadequate sexual offence laws orthe enactment of hate crime or equal opportunity legislation.

Both films won garlands at the Impact Doc Film Festbval in January 2021. and have garnered over 10, views across the Tru5trs digital platforms.
