ORAM, ‘Enhancing Protection of Sexual & Gender Minority Beneficiaries and Staff in Organizational Codes of Conduct: Model Code & Analyses’, 2016.

This publication examines the treatment of sexual and gender minorities (SGMs) in the most-utilized code of conduct in the field of international refugee protection: that of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). It aims to identify gaps in the UNHCR Code’s coverage of SGM refugees and staff, and proposes specific amendments to narrow these gaps. Also available in Spanish, French and German.
