ANALYSIS | Mauritius' court ruling shows southern Africa leads the way in LGBTQIA+ rights in Africa

The Mauritius Supreme Court ruled last month that anti-homosexuality laws do not "reflect any indigenous Mauritian values" but were, in fact, imports from Britain.

The ruling was an enormous tribute to the possibility of people-powered change. LGBTQIA+ people and groups in Africa who worked for years for this moment celebrated the court's forceful and accurate assertion that anti-homosexuality laws do not"reflect any indigenous Mauritian values" but were, in fact, imports from Britain.South Africans need to be in the know if we want to create a prosperous future.
