Same-sex sexual activity is legal in Suriname. The age of consent is set at 18 for homosexuals, 16 for heterosexuals. The code section which criminalises homosexual acts with someone under the age of 18, with up to four years imprisonment (Section 302) is rarely enforced.

In the Spotlight

St. Pauls Voice Centre

St. Pauls Voice Centre is a smal, but fast growing organisation in, the very GAY UNFRIENDLY, Uganda.

Uganda, officially the Republic of Uganda, is a landlocked country in East Africa. Uganda is also known as the “Pearl of Africa”. It is bordered on the east by Kenya, on the north by South Sudan, on the west by the Democratic Republic of the Congo, on the southwest by Rwanda, and on the south by Tanzania. The southern part of the country includes a substantial portion of Lake Victoria, which is also shared by Kenya and Tanzania..

Fighting every day to support their fellow LGBTI brothers and sisters, in a country thats at the moment is prepairing an ANTI GAY BILL (The socalled KILL THE GAY BILL). Working with out any financial help St. Pauls Voive Centre is depending whole on (small) donations from us, for the funding of their projects.
