About This International LGBTQ+ Directory

This page is intended to help people locate LGBTQ+ organizations, community networks, helplines, refugee and asylum resources, transgender support services and other community information outside India.

International organizations often have different eligibility requirements and may only serve people in particular countries or regions. Some organizations provide information and referrals rather than direct individual assistance.

If you are looking for help because of persecution, displacement, violence, abuse or another urgent situation, contact an organization that specifically handles your situation and location. Do not assume that an international organization can provide relocation, immigration, financial or emergency assistance simply because it appears in this directory.
