Ang Ladlad is a Filipino lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) political party. It was founded by Danton Remoto, and has been in existence since 21 September, 2003.
The organization's thrust is toward human rights, and the organization is fighting for equal rights among all Filipinos, whether they are LGBT or not.
Programs and Platforms
- Re-filing of the Anti-Discrimination Bill that gives LGBT Filipinos equal opportunities in employment and equal treatment in schools, hospitals, restaurants, hotels, entertainment centers, and government offices.
- Re-filing of the bill to repeal the Anti-Vagrancy Law that some unscrupulous policemen use to extort bribes from gay men without ID cards;
- Setting up of micro-finance and livelihood projects for poor and handicapped LGBT Filipinos;
- Setting up of centers for Golden Gays, or old and abandoned LGBTs, as well as young ones driven out of their homes. The centers will also offer legal aid and counseling, as well as information about LGBT issues, HIV-AIDS, and reproductive health. These centers will be set up initially in the key cities/metropolitan areas of the Philippines -- Baguio, National Capital Region, Cebu and Davao.
