This report seeks to help non-governmental organisations (NGOs) protect LGBTI refugees and asylum seekers, who are among the most vulnerable people in the world. It makes several key recommendations, as the extreme marginalisation of LGBTI refugees and asylum seekers deepens the need for informed intervention by NGOs. The report is based on the first wide-ranging, systemic attitudinal survey of international refugee protection by hundreds of NGOs around the world.
