Three days of main conference and one day of pre-conference for Asian LBQ activists and communities to honour our past, strengthen our solidarity, and imagine our transformative future.
We invite LBQ activists, organizers, community leaders, artists, and researchers across Asia to propose sessions that reflect the realities, struggles, and visions of our communities.
Sessions should engage with the conference themes: Reclaim, Organise, and Liberate, and explore LBQ topics in Asia (South, Southeast and East Asia) on movement building, democracy, human rights, community care, arts and cultural resistance, and strategies for sustaining activism in challenging contexts.
Since March 1986, when Asian activists formed the Asian Lesbian Network at the International Lesbian Information Service (ILIS) conference in Geneva, Switzerland, LBQ communities have created spaces of revolutionary imagination against patriarchal systems designed to erase us. From the Lesbian Tent at the 1995 Beijing Conference to the 2019 Global Feminist LBQ gathering in Cape Town, South Africa, our movement has persisted in the face of systemic discrimination, violations of fundamental rights, and enforced invisibility, continuing to assert dignity, equality, and the right to exist and organise freely.
The Asia Feminist LBQ Conference 2027 (AFLC 2027) returns to Bangkok, Thailand after 29 years since the last 1990 Asian Lesbian Network Conference. From 23 to 26 March 2027, we are bringing together 300+ activists, communities and allies for three days of main conference and one day of pre-conference of plenary sessions, workshops, and community-building.
Organised by the Asia Feminist LBQ Network, the conference will honour the revolutionary past of LBQ organising in Asia, strengthen intersectional and regional queer feminist solidarity in the region, and to imagine transformative futures for our movements.
The main themes of the conference are:
Programming and leadership will remain fully rooted in LBQ leadership, centering the autonomy, agency and lived realities of our communities. Allies and partners are invited to engage in ways that uphold accountability, redistribute power and resources, and contribute to the long-term realisation of LBQ rights, justice and feminist collective liberation.
