Draft:The Equality Hub

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Equality Hub is a Nigerian non-profit organization that advances the rights of female sexual minorities in Nigeria.[1][2]

Pamela Adie is the executive director of Equality Hub.[3][4][2][5]

The organization was the first to produce Nigeria’s first lesbian-focused documentary film titled "Under the Rainbow" in 2019.[6][7]

In 2020, the Equality Hub launched the EhTV Network, Nigeria’s first streaming service dedicated to Nigerian LGBTQ-related content. In the same year, they launched an online retail store that offers LGBTIQ+ customised items to increase visibility of LGBTQ+ which is the main focus of her organization.[8]
