RFSL has, together with NIDS Development Service , developed briefs for Sida. with information and guidance on the application of the Human Rights Based Approach in relation to LGBTI persons. There are briefs for almost every country and/or region where Sweden is engaged in development cooperation.
The Swedish government considers the human rights of LGBTI persons a Swedish priority. The briefs provide basic information about the situation of this group and inspire discussions on what Sweden could do to better include LGBTI rights in programmes and dialogue.
