Summary
  • A specialist directory tailored toward refugees and migrants
  • Showcasing services and businesses focused on refugees and migrants’ needs globally
  • Categories and filters specific to the LGBTQIA+ community
The Gayther Refugees and Migrant Directory is a specialist listing service on the Gayther platform, one of the largest online LGBTQIA+ resources in the world. A directory showcasing all available services and businesses tailored to refugees and migrants worldwide. The term refugee describes a person or group of individuals forced to leave their home due to war, violence or persecution. In contrast, migrants are individuals seeking to leave their home country to pursue a better life and greater opportunities elsewhere. Rules and regulations concerning immigration and asylum are often complex, so getting the right advice and support can be vital.

Unfortunately, at any given point, there is some type of conflict or way taking place around the world. For many of those directly affected, they will likely need to flee their homes, regions or countries in order to stay safe. Though many will often become displaced within their own country or by settling in neighbouring countries, when the effect and impact of the conflict is severe or long-lasting, many will travel to safer countries to seek asylum.

For the LGBTQIA+ community, many live in countries where exposing their sexuality or gender identify could have serious consequences, with over a quarter of the world still criminalising same-sex relationships and at least 10 countries imposing the maximum penalty of death. The situation is serious.

Though the refugee convention, protocol and asylum are all invaluable and typically well-meaning, many grey areas exist, such as the rights and protections of LGBTQIA+ individuals seeking asylum. Coupled with a non-standard assessment process and a lack of consensus by countries in accepting LGBTQIA+ asylum seekers. For community members, the whole process can be challenging, and the outcome is not always positive.

The Refugee and Migrant directory was established to connect those seeking help with the organisations and services best equipped to assist them. A global service, those seeking help can search by country, category and type to find what they want and need fast.
