Emmanuel
“It is necessary to develop reception and accommodation facilities for LGBTIQ+ exiles in order to provide them with inclusive, caring and safe spaces. The multiplication of these centres across France will facilitate their asylum application process and their integration.”
Emelyne
“One of the first requests here is for a cocoon, a space to call your own.”
Yury
When I escaped from Ukraine, I went first to Poland and then to Italy, where I sought political asylum. In one of the shelters I was before I came to Casa+, I felt very lonely.
Jean-Loïc
“My partner was lynched by the crowd. Neither the police nor the justice system protected me. I had to flee my country to stay alive.”
