Towards inclusion of LGBTI+ refugees in service provision in the Western Balkans
This report has been prepared to assess the state of play for the inclusion of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex (LGBTI+) refugees, asylum seekers and migrants (henceforth referred to as LGBTI+ refugees) and the protection of LGBTI+ rights in the context of current service provision in the Western Balkan region, and to make recommendations for future policy and programming. The core aim was to identify gaps in service provision and possible interventions to address these; this study does not, however, provide a comprehensive needs assessment. The first section of the report gives an overview of the challenges experienced in meeting the needs of LGBTI+ refugees. The second section points to good practices and recommendations for more effectively meeting the needs of LGBTI+ refugees, before concluding with some key recommendations for policy and programming.
