Complex picture of LGBTI people's living conditions in rural areas
The living conditions of LGTBI people depend on where in the
Nordic Region they live. There are regional differences, for example in access
to support, targeted initiatives and networks. The publication brings together
key studies from across the region, highlighting the living conditions of LGBTI
people from different perspectives.

...for
a free knowledge society, a fair and just working life
and an equal Nordic region? The Secretariat contribute with research-based
knowledge, gender perspectives and power-critical analyses. Our activities are
primarily focused on and organised within three focus areas, which interact
with each other. Within these, we conduct research reviews, investigations and
analyses, and identify knowledge gaps and research needs. We also administer three
funds.
