ConFESsions Vodcast: New episode with Arbër Kodra (Open Mind Spectrum Albania - OMSA)

In the newest episode of ConFESsions, Hana spoke with Arbër, executive director of OMSA, an Albanian organization fighting for equality for LGBTQI+ and other marginalized groups in Albania, just in time for #pridemonth2022.

Watch the full episode on the ConFESsions Vodcast YouTube channel.

In this episode, Arbër shared with us the current state of arts when it comes to the rights of the LGBTQI+ community in Albania, but also his motivations to choose activism as his life-long calling. These emotional, and kind-hearted reflections on what it is like to seek acceptance and equality as a human being touched on many different aspects including responses within the family and the mental health challenges that discrimination and non-acceptance inflict on the LGBTQI+ community.
