Burkina Faso criminalizes "promotion" of homosexuality
Effective September 1, 2025, Burkina Faso passed a law imposing prison sentences of two to five years and fines for individuals who "promote homosexuality." The law also includes provisions to expel non-nationals and restrict adoption by those who reject the country's “moral values,” signaling a dramatic shift for LGBTQ+ rights in a region that was once relatively open.https://images.pexels.com/photos/33768885/pexels-photo-33768885.jpeg
