LGBT rights in Mozambique
Same-sex sexual activity became legal in Mozambique under the new criminal code that took effect in June 2015.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=State-sponsored Homophobia: A world survey of laws prohibiting same sex activity between consenting adults )〕 Discrimination protections in employment based on sexual orientation exist since 2007.
==Law regarding same-sex sexual activity==
Until enactment of a new criminal code, the legal status of same-sex sexual activity was ambiguous. On March 2011, the Minister of Justice declared during the UN Human Rights Council's Universal Periodic Review that homosexuality is not an offence in Mozambique.〔(Mozambique Gay Rights Group Wants Explicit Constitutional Protections )〕〔()〕 However, the Penal Code does contain an offence of "practices against nature".〔()〕 According to the ILGA, this clause could potentially be interpreted as including male and female same-sex sexual activity, even though it is unknown to what extent the law is enforced. Indeed, reports state that the incidence of the statute being enforced against LGBT individuals have been slim to none.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=State-sponsored Homophobia: A world survey of laws prohibiting same sex activity between consenting adults )〕〔Mozambique by Mary Fitzpatrick (Lonely Planet) – pg 174〕
In December 2014, the president signed the new criminal code which does not have any provisions regarding same-sex sexual activity.〔(Mozambique: Presidente promulga nuevo Código Penal que legaliza el aborto )〕〔(Moçambique reafirma que homossexualidade não constitui crime )〕 It was published in the official journal on 31 December 2014 and took effect 180 days later.〔
