[kictanet] LGBT rights for ICT professionals and other engineers/scientists

I recently read with distress this email from Alan Turing written shortly before his suicide following conviction for "gross indecency after admitting to a sexual relationship with another man". http://www.lettersofnote.com/2012/06/yours-in-distress-alan.html And then read this sad article summarizing the current state of affairs regarding LGBT rights in Kenya: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_rights_in_Kenya Is there anything that the members of the KICTAnet community can do to support LGBT members of the engineering and ICT communities in Kenya? Supporting individual rights is critical to creating an environment where innovation can happen. Cheers, Adam
