2018 Australasian Aid Conference - Panel 4c - LGBTIQ+ inclusion
This panel explored the rationale and methodology for LGBTIQ+ inclusion within humanitarian and development programs.

However, rights-based development organisations and humanitarian organisations have been relatively slow to address the rights and needs of LGBTIQ+ people within their programs. Amongst the challenges is the lack of research to inform program design. Recognising this, the UNDP and The World Bank have called for the creation of a bespoke LGBTI index to sit...
