LAMBDA – Associação Moçambicana para a Defesa das Minorias Sexuais

LAMBDA, the Mozambican Association for the Defence of Sexual Minorities, is the country's best-known LGBTQ+ organisation, founded in Maputo in 2006. It runs sexual-health work including HIV testing and prevention for men who have sex with men, offers psychosocial support and campaigns on rights. Its Maputo base is at Av. Marien Ngouabi 112 in Malhangalene. Mozambique decriminalised same-sex conduct in 2015, yet LAMBDA's application for official registration, filed in 2008, has never been granted despite a 2017 Constitutional Council ruling in its favour.
