Violence, and the fear of violence, is an everyday reality for many lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex people (LGBTQI+).

This report summarises existing evidence on violence against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex people (LGBTQI+) people, and shares emerging insights into what works to prevent this kind of violence. It is based on a global evidence review which focused on understanding violence against LGBTQI+ people and identifying promising interventions and practice in preventing violence based on sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC). Based on the evidence review and consultations with LGBTQI+ organisations as well as LGBTQI+ rights and gender equality practitioners, the report sets out a series of recommendations for policy-makers and donors, practitioners and researchers to take forward.
