The Lesbians, Gays and Bisexuals of Botswana (LEGABIBO) community has gone through a rollercoaster of events since their journey towards having their rights recognized in the country. The experience has and is still a challenging one as the ice surrounding their organization and its members in society has not melted. LEGAGIBO was established in 1998 but only managed to successfully get registered in 2016. This speaks volumes of the hardships they have to endure for being different from what is perceived as morally and socially acceptable. Their greatest achievement is the decrim case of 2016, prompting government to decriminalize homosexuality.
