Shocked to discover how many Indian parents shun their LGBT children, she has made it her life’s mission to educate fellow parents about LGBT issues. Aruna Desai was a participant at the latest program of the Salzburg Global LGBT Forum – Advancing Legal and Social Equality in South Asia, held in Kathmandu, Nepal, February 24 to March 1, 2019. Listen to her speak to Manvendra Gohil in the podcast LGBTKyu where she discusses how she dealt with being a Rainbow parent and now she is counselling other parents on how to help their children accept themselves and how to support them so they can be of financial and emotional strength and contribute productively to theirs and others lives.
