IDS Partner, Pink Space featured in The Economist and major Chinese newspaper
26 March 2010
IDS Sexuality and Development Programme Partner, Pink Space Sexuality Research Group, China has been cited in the Economist and in Reference News, a Chinese national newspaper with circulation of over 3 million, for their work with women married to gay men.
The article describes Pink Space as a support group for wives of gay men. In fact it is has a much broader remit – working to support and build alliances between people facing marginalisation in connection with their sexuality, including women married to gay men, lesbians, transgender people, sex workers, and women living with HIV/AIDS.
Reference News, China's most read daily newspaper, translated the article from the Economist and featured it on the 24th of March 2010. The story can be read below.
