LGBTQ+ Refugees

LGBTQ+ refugees are individuals who have fled their home countries because of violence, discrimination, or persecution based on their sexual orientation or gender identity. Many face threats, imprisonment, or harm simply for being who they are. They seek safety and protection in other countries where their rights are recognized and upheld. Supporting LGBTQ+ refugees involves providing them with legal asylum, access to healthcare, and safe living conditions, recognizing that their journey is driven by a need for basic human dignity and security.
