About this listen
What does queer advocacy look like beyond Western contexts—and what can the global movement learn from it?
In this episode of Living Queer, Erwin de Leon welcomes Enkhmaa Enkbold, Executive Director of the LGBT Center of Mongolia, the country’s first LGBTQ+ human rights organization, for a powerful conversation on global queer advocacy, safety, and solidarity
Enkhmaa reflects on Mongolia’s legal progress around LGBTQ+ rights, while naming the persistent violence and discrimination faced by young queer and trans people. Drawing from years of frontline advocacy, she discusses building trans-led leadership, defending safe spaces, and engaging international human rights systems to push for accountability.
The episode also explores cultural specificity, the meaning of community cohesion, and the responsibility of global allies to understand how anti-LGBTQ+ movements circulate across borders.
Grounded, instructive, and deeply human, this conversation expands how we think about queer life and resistance worldwide.
