LGBTQIA+ Movement Demands Creation of State Council in MT and Expands Articulation

Mato Grosso’s LGBTQIA+ movement is mobilizing to demand the creation of a State Council that can establish effective public policies and combat discrimination and violence against this population. The initiative aims to strengthen the fight for rights and promote greater inclusion and visibility for LGBTQIA+ people in the state.

The movement has been actively advocating for the establishment of the Council, which would serve as a platform to address the specific needs and challenges faced by the LGBTQIA+ community. The Council would also provide a formal mechanism for dialogue with the state government, ensuring that the voices of LGBTQIA+ individuals are heard and considered in the formulation and implementation of public policies.

In addition to the creation of the Council, the movement is also working to expand its network of partnerships and alliances with other social movements, civil society organizations, and government agencies. This broader articulation is seen as crucial for building a more inclusive and equitable society where the rights of LGBTQIA+ people are respected and protected.

Leaders of the movement emphasize that the creation of the State Council is a fundamental step towards ensuring that the rights and needs of the LGBTQIA+ community are addressed in a systematic and sustained manner. They argue that the Council will provide a permanent space for dialogue and coordination between the government and civil society, enabling the development of more effective and responsive public policies.

The movement’s efforts are part of a broader national and global trend towards greater recognition and protection of LGBTQIA+ rights. In recent years, there have been significant advances in many countries, with the legalization of same-sex marriage, the recognition of gender identity, and the implementation of anti-discrimination laws. However, there is still much work to be done to ensure that these rights are fully realized and that LGBTQIA+ people can live free from discrimination and violence.

In Mato Grosso, the movement’s demands are supported by a growing number of activists, allies, and sympathetic public officials. The creation of the State Council is seen as a crucial step towards building a more inclusive and just society for all. The movement remains committed to continuing its struggle until its demands are met and the rights of LGBTQIA+ people are fully recognized and protected.

Conselho LGBTQIA+ em Mato Grosso: A Luta por Direitos e Políticas Públicas Permanentes A criação do Conselho Estadual de Políticas Públicas para a População LGBTQIA+ voltou a ser pauta prioritária do movimento em Mato Grosso. O tema foi reforçado durante a 4ª Conferência Estadual dos Direitos da Pessoa LGBTQIA+, que encerrou na quinta-feira (12), em Cuiabá, com a participação de representantes de 17 municípios. Clovis Arante, presidente da Associação da Parada LGBT, destacou a importância do conselho como uma ferramenta permanente de diálogo e formulação de políticas públicas. "Direitos não podem depender de judicialização. Se vivemos numa democracia, ela deve valer para todos, inclusive para garantir moradia, saúde, educação e emprego para pessoas trans e travestis. Nossas vidas importam todos os dias, e não só na época do voto", afirmou. A proposta de criação do conselho já foi apresentada anteriormente à Assembleia Legislativa, mas foi derrubada pela própria base do governo estadual. Desta vez, no entanto, o movimento está adotando uma estratégia diferente, buscando o diálogo prévio com todos os deputados, inclusive com a base do governo. Entre os parlamentares que já sinalizaram apoio à proposta estão Beto Dois a Um (PSB), Doutor João (MDB), Janaína Riva (MDB), Lúdio Cabral (PT), Valdir Barranco (PT) e Júlio Campos (União). O governo estadual demonstrou disposição para reapresentar a proposta à Assembleia, desta vez com uma articulação prévia mais consistente. Além da criação do conselho, os representantes do movimento LGBTQIA+ também elaboraram um conjunto de propostas que será entregue formalmente ao Governo do Estado, à Assembleia Legislativa e à Prefeitura de Cuiabá. O prefeito Abílio Brunini (PL) já sinalizou abertura para tratar da pauta e pensar em políticas concretas. A conferência contou com a presença de mais de 260 participantes vindos de cidades como Rondonópolis, Primavera do Leste, Tangará da Serra, Cáceres, Sinop, Juína, Barra do Garças, Sorriso, Querência e Nossa Senhora do Livramento. Ao todo, foram realizadas conferências preparatórias em 17 municípios, reunindo demandas locais para compor um plano de atuação estadual. "Não dá para fazer política pública olhando só para Cuiabá. É em Querência, em Juína, em Livramento que a população LGBTQIA+ também precisa de acolhimento, saúde, educação e dignidade", reforçou Clovis. O documento final da conferência estadual será entregue nos próximos dias às autoridades. Nele, o movimento reafirma que a sustentação de políticas públicas para a população LGBTQIA+ exige estrutura permanente, e não ações pontuais. "Sem conselho, não há estratégia. Sem estratégia, não há democracia plena", concluiu.
