IDAHO 2007

Background

The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community in Lebanon face complex layers of oppression, where legal, economic, and social factors contribute to long-ingrained historical marginalization. Cornerstone in this is the explicit denial of LGBT rights in the Lebanese Penal Code's Article 534, which is interpreted by law enforcement and the judiciary as criminalizing homosexuality and legalizing heterosexism.
