Home accommodation for LGBTQIA+ asylum seekers
Asylum seekers can choose to stay in home accommodation instead of a reception centre. Many LGBTIQIA+ people prefer homestay with a local host for various reasons. There is constant need for home accommodation.
We’ll cover the basics of home accommodation and specific issues related to hosting LGBTIQIA+ people. A person who has lived in and another one who has provided home accommodation will share their experiences.
You are welcome to hear more and discuss about home accommodation as a meaningful way to advance LGBTQIA+ asylum seekers’ rights!
