Under the title “Transforming LGBTIQ+ asylum policies: A multi-country cross-sectoral approach to research, policy, and advocacy”, the project explores LGBTIQ+ asylum through a wide set of interconnected themes. Rather than reducing asylum to legal procedure alone, it looks at how protection is shaped by everyday life, structural inequality, institutional violence and collective survival.
How do legal systems decide whose stories are believed and whose claims for protection are refused?
How do accommodation and confinement shape safety during the asylum process?
How do displacement and asylum systems affect people’s bodies and emotions?
How do religion, belief and identity shape everyday survival for LGBTIQ+ people on the move?
How do people create care and support when formal protection systems fail them?
How do LGBTIQ+ people build liveable futures while navigating precarity?
