On our way to #IEBrussels2018 to share our experiences as the world's leading #Muslim #LGBTQI support group because #AllahLovesUsAll
The Dutch delegation at ILGA-Europe #IEBrussels2018 Conference. An inspiring conference and a growing awareness that there is still a lot of joint work to do for the basic rights of the LGBTI+ community in Europe.
Wonderful to hear @StichtingMaruf at #IEBrussels2018
We need to share our unique #intersectional narratives of being #LGBTQI #Muslims in our own words to give hope to our fellow queer Muslims around the world that it is OK to love yourself
There are 61 countries in which sexual relations between people of the same sex are illegal, 12 of whose legislation imposes the death penalty for sexual relations between people of the same sex. #IEBrussels2018 #Politics4Change

Youth kicked out by their families for being LGBTIQ may not think of themselves as homeless. They’re just “couch surfing.” Robbie Stakelum #IEBrussels2018
(I’m gaining new levels of appreciation for my husband’s experience being of homeless in this way & grateful to all who helped)
So it begins! Joyce Hamilton and @brianatsocdems are starting off #IEBrussels2018 ! An intense inspiring weekend of coversantions ahead!

Homelessness services in Europe are geared towards straight men in their 30s &40s. An ill fit for a 17-year-old kicked out of house for being LGBTIQ. Also gender-segregated which creates problems for #trans homeless. People drop out services entirely. Robbie Stakelum #IEBrussels2018
Great political debate at #IEBrussels2018 , particularly enjoying Malin Björk's strong stances on avoiding false dichotomies between business as usual or nationalism, and on promoting a critical approach to the EU that focusses on social rights as well as economic rights!
A fantastic opportunity to hear from Ailbhe Smith (Ailbhe Smyth) Co-Director of Together for Yes, the campaign to remove the Eighth Amendment of the Irish Constitution to legalise abortion in #Ireland , at the ILGA-Europe Conference. So moving and motivating! #LGBT #IEbrussels2018
In U.S., LGBT youth are 120% more likely to experience #homelessness compared to non-LGBT youth. Being LGBT doubles your chances of experiencing homelessness, being black doubles your chances again. Jama Shelton at #IEbrussels2018
