Freedom and Roam Uganda (FARUG) is a human rights organization that addresses discrimination against lesbian, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LBTIQ) people in Uganda. FARUG was founded in 2003 by Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera, a Ugandan lesbian advocate. The group’s current executive director is Ssenfuka J Warry. After witnessing and experiencing the harassment, discrimination and violence Ugandan women face because of their gender identity or sexual orientation, Nabagesera set out with a group of her friends to advocate on their behalf. Today FARUG identifies as the only local organization fully dedicated to LBTI issues in Uganda. FARUG’s work includes raising awareness throughout the country about LBTI women, sexual and reproductive health, homophobia, and transphobia; increasing visibility in the media; lobbying locally, regionally and internationally; conducting skills and knowledge-sharing workshops, seminars and conferences; and challenging what the group sees as anti-LBTI beliefs and stigma on a day-to-day basis . FARUG has also worked closely with Sexual Minorities Uganda (SMUG), an umbrella LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) advocacy organization, to highlight discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Ugandans. In response to an article in the Ugandan newspaper Rolling Stone that published photographs of gay and lesbian Ugandans under the headline "Hang Them,” Nabagesera and other members of SMUG whose faces appeared in the paper filed a petition to the High Court seeking to end circulation of the article. The petition was granted on November 2, 2010, effectively ruling for the end of the publication. In May 2011, FARUG’s executive director Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera was awarded the Martin Ennals Award for Human Rights Defenders for her advocacy.

Gisèle Pelicot (French: [ʒizɛl peliko] ; born 7 December 1952) is a French woman who was covertly drugged and raped by her husband Dominique Pelicot on numerous occasions over a nine-year period between 2011 and 2020. Dominique also invited dozens of men, contacted through a website, to rape her while she was unconscious, mostly in the couple's home in Mazan. Gisèle only became aware of the abuse in 2020, when Dominique was arrested for upskirting women in a local supermarket and a police search of his computer equipment revealed images of her being raped. When Dominique and fifty other men went on trial for aggravated rape, attempted rape, and sexual assault in Avignon in 2024, Gisèle waived her right to anonymity and a trial behind closed doors. The trial attracted worldwide media attention, and Gisèle's courage and determination to speak out on behalf of all victims of sexual assault won her widespread international support and admiration. She became a feminist icon and featured in the BBC's 2024 list of 100 women of the year and the Financial Times list of the 25 most influential women of the year. In December 2024, 50 of the 51 men on trial, including Dominique, were convicted of raping, attempting to rape, and sexually assaulting Gisèle. The 51st man, who had not been charged with raping Gisèle, was convicted of raping his own wife. Dominique received the maximum 20-year sentence, while the other convicted men received 3- to 15-year sentences.
