CELEBRATING OUR OWN: AGGIE DENNETT HARMON 2026 INTERNATIONAL PRIDE AWARD RECIPIENT
Uganda National Trans Forum (UNTF) proudly celebrates our member
@aggiedennett for receiving the 2026 International Pride Award Celebrating Diverse Lives, presented by UNDP and ILGA World during the WorldPride Human Rights Conference in Amsterdam.
This global recognition celebrates Aggie’s courageous leadership and commitment to championing the protection, freedom and equality of trans, gender-diverse and intersex people.
As a Ugandan trans pastor, advocate, and community leader, Aggie has consistently created spaces of healing, dignity, and belonging for LGBTIQ+ communities, particularly trans women who experience violence, displacement, stigma, and exclusion. Through community organizing, psychosocial and trauma-informed support, harm reduction, faith, storytelling, and advocacy, she continues to demonstrate what transformative, community-led leadership looks like.
For us at UNTF, this recognition carries profound significance. When one of our members is recognized on the global stage, our entire movement is seen. It affirms the leadership, resilience, and contributions of transgender people in Uganda who continue organizing, caring for their communities, and advancing equality despite an increasingly challenging environment.
Aggie, we celebrate you not only for receiving this prestigious award but also for the lives you continue to touch, the spaces you create for others to belong, and the courage with which you continue to lead.
Your achievement reminds us that trans leadership from Uganda belongs on the global stage.
Congratulations, Aggie Dennett Harmon! 🏳️⚧️👏🏾
May this recognition strengthen your work and inspire even more trans and gender-diverse leaders across Uganda, Africa, and beyond.
All of us at the Uganda National Trans Forum are incredibly proud to celebrate this milestone with you.
