This resource examines the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex (LGBTQI+) people as important but underrepresented within atrocities research and atrocity prevention policy and practice. The resource refers to a range of atrocities, including but not limited to hate crimes, dehumanising and fearmongering rhetoric, corrective sexual violence and mass identity-based violence. It sets out the heightened risk of discrimination and violence many LGBTQI+ people face, providing examples from a range of countries and recent contexts. It then recommends how different actors including civil society organisations, states, and donors can better recognise and respond to these risks.
