EP39 - Talks with Erik Martins - Pride and Protection: Defending LGBTQI+ Rights Through Art and Advocacy
This episode highlights the experience and perspective of LGBTQI+ human rights defenders, with a focus on the intersections of activism, mental health, and the power of the performative arts in raising awareness about the LGBTQI+ Community. Erik’s work as a psychologist and cultural facilitator offers a unique lens into how artistic expression can become a tool for resilience, resistance, and community healing. His voice represents a generation of young changemakers advocating for dignity and safety in an increasingly polarized world.
In this episode, we’ll also discuss the role of international institutions, particularly the EU, in amplifying and protecting LGBTQI+ rights.
