LGBTQ+ sensitivity in the refugee crisis response in Poland

What are the biggest challenges refugees and migrants from the LGBTQ+ community face in Poland, and how do locally-led organisations create networks and structures to support them?  

In this episode, we are talking about the Ukraine crisis response in Poland with a focus on strengthening the capacity of local organisations and advocacy for LGBTQ+ migrants and refugees.    

Hear the insights from Sarian Jarosz, Advocacy and Research Lead at Queer Without Borders, an informal group of activists working for the improvement of the situation of LGBTQI+ migrants and refugees in Poland. Piotr Kolodziej, our Regional Lead in Eastern Europe, shares how the partnership between the HLA and Queer Without Borders happened and what are our plans to strengthen the capacity of local organisations supporting LGBTQ+ refugees and migrants in Poland.
