We have supplemented the World Report information with additional country profiles for all other countries that criminalize consensual same-sex conduct or gender expression, and for some other countries in which notable events related to LGBT rights took place in recent years. They are derived in part from sections of the Human Rights Watch 2021 World Report that relate to the rights of LGBT people. The following country profiles provide information on the human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in 129 countries around the world. This is a living document which will be updated regularly to reflect new events and further Human Rights Watch research.
