Human Rights in Iceland. Promising Practices
by Equality and Human Rights Action Centre (ACTEDO)
This podcast is based on a study visit in Iceland done by the Equality and Human Rights Action Center (ACTEDO), a Romanian human rights NGO, in June 2023. Over the course of a week, we were welcomed by 9 organizations whose work centers on human rights, particularly gender equality and LGBTQIA+ rights. Why Iceland? The country has been a global trailblazer in the field of human rights, and the World Economic Forum has named it the most gender-equal country for 14 years in a row, with over 90% of the gender gap closed. The country has also made significant progress in LGBTQIA+ rights, scoring 71% on ILGA Europe's Rainbow map 2023.Over three episodes, you will hear excerpts from our meetings with advocates focusing on three main issues in human rights work: gender equality, gender-based violence, and LGBTQIA+ rights and anti-gender movements.The first episode covers the Icelandic organizations most closely working to achieve gender equality and contains interviews
