- Authors
Rodriguez, Diego Garcia; Giametta, Calogero
- Abstract
This article discusses the field of queer migration studies and its evolution in recent years. It highlights the intersectionality of migration with sexuality and gender, emphasizing the critique of heteronormativity in immigration institutions. The article focuses on the challenges faced by LGBTIQ+ asylum seekers, particularly in the United Kingdom, including issues related to normative identity frameworks, credibility assessments, and accommodation and detention. It calls for intersectional analyses and a re-evaluation of practices to better protect the rights and dignity of LGBTIQ+ asylum seekers.
