Description
In addition to the global context of 70 countries criminalizing same sex intimacy, we are in the middle of a global refugee crisis – with 80 million people displaced – the largest number since World War 2. At the same time there are a network of activists and organizations pushing for solutions. Building off a recent UNHCR covening on LGBTI+ refugees, with perspectives from various parts of the world, this session will discuss what civil society and government must do to address the situation.
