ReportOUT in partnership with LGBTQ+ charity OUT North East, in partnership and Pride Action North, are to host an essential #SaferToBeMe mini-conference on Friday 6th November 2026, for organisations who strive to support the LGBTQIA+ youth of the UK.

On the 11th of April 2026, several people were attacked and assaulted in the Shahbagh district of Dhaka, the country's capital city. Throughout the group of attackers, homophobic slurs and hate speech were chanted, with victims being targeted because they were assumed to be ‘queer’.

ReportOUT is open for a new Trustee Chair to help lead the charity in momentously challenging times for LGBTQ+ human rights. As a global human rights charity never have so many people relied on our services and expertise.

The Indian Transgender Persons (Amendment) Bill 2026 seeks to replace the right to self-identification on mandatory medical assessments and district-level screening processes. It also introduces a narrowed and exclusionary definition of transgender identity, effectively erasing recognition of trans men and non-binary persons.

It is a decade since the passing of the draconian Same-Sex Marriage Prohibition Act (SSMPA) in Nigeria which not only criminalises same-sex relationships but also bans gatherings or advocacy for LGBTQ+ rights, fostering widespread discrimination, hate and fear. The law's impact extends beyond legal penalties, fueling social stigma, limiting access to healthcare and forcing many to live in secrecy.

The 2025 ILGA Europe Rainbow Map was launched today and I am sad to say that it makes for grim reading. Alongside far-right populist-led nation states, such as Georgia and Hungary, the United Kingdom has seen a significant drop of 6 places from 17th in 2024, to now languishing in 22nd place. This drop, and a lack of gains made across Europe, should sound as a warning klaxon for us all.
