Zein

«We come here to have peace and to live our lives as human beings.»

Rajae

“Being a lesbian in Morocco is so taboo that people wonder if it really exists.”

Adil

“The procedure can take 2, 3 or even 5 years sometimes. During this time we live in stress and fear.”

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.»

Jade

“Being visible can serve to liberate me and tell what I want to tell a society that believes there is no transphobia.”

Hzani

«I was rejected by my family because I am trans. All my life I have been abused and institutions have never protected me.»

Claudia

“Trans people are vulnerable in a system that does not have a gender perspective adequate to their needs.”

Sara

“Take the time to learn about LGBTIQ+ asylum seekers’ specific needs.”

Rodrigo

“The social network, the basis of inclusion, is built primarily on leisure.”

Arsène

“We need LGBTIQ+ associations in the reception centres. I didn’t have that.”

Huguette

“When I was made visible, I had to leave everything, I was threatened with death.”

Emelyne

“One of the first requests here is for a cocoon, a space to call your own.”

Joana

“I grew up in an environment of hatred, I was surrounded by hatred.”

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.»

Judit

“LGBTIQ+ people have specific needs that are invisible because of the cissexism present in the reception system.”
