Sex, Love & HomophobiaLesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) network
All over the world lesbians, gay men, bisexual and transgender people are being criminalised, tortured or ill-treated because of their sexuality.
Amnesty and our Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Network is working to expose these human rights abuses.
We take action to challenge governments and state authorities to fulfil their responsibility to protect LGBT people from such abuses.
Amnesty works to protect human rights defenders who put themselves at risk by speaking out to protest at human rights violations based on sexuality or gender identity.

Each year thousands of women and girls in Jamaica are sexually assaulted in their
communities, their schools, their workplaces, their homes and in the street. The
state is not effectively investigating these abuses or punishing the perpetrators.
