Rainbow Migration, ‘Rainbow Migration’s submission to the Joint Committee on Human Rights: Illegal Migration Bill’, April 2023
Abstract
There are many countries that are unsafe for LGBTQI+ people specifically. While established resettlement routes may prioritise LGBTQI+ people as a particularly vulnerable group, the fact is that for many of the countries where being LGBTQI+ is criminalised there are no resettlement options, and the only route available to LGBTQI+ people in these countries is to make their way to the UK by whatever means necessary.
