FARR – From Insecure to Informed
X
The project “From Exposed to Informed”, which was granted funding in 2024, was carried out by FARR during 2024–2025. Its purpose was to strengthen access to clear, accurate, and target group-adapted information for LGBTQI asylum seekers in Sweden, as well as for organisations and individuals who support this group.
X
The project included a review of existing advisory materials, collection of knowledge through surveys and dialogue with the target group, and training activities and knowledge exchange with advisors and civil society organisations. The material was developed in close collaboration with subject matter experts and reviewed by legal professionals with specialised expertise in asylum law and LGBTQI issues, in order to ensure high quality and relevance.

The project’s main outcome is a digital, openly accessible information resource that provides guidance on the asylum process from an LGBTQI perspective. The material is available through a dedicated website and has been disseminated through organisations, networks, and outreach activities. It has contributed to improving access to relevant information for the target group and strengthening the capacity of civil society to provide more informed and appropriate support.

The project has also contributed to increased knowledge and strengthened competence within the organisation and its networks. The information material will continue to be used, disseminated, and updated in response to changes in legislation and the needs of the target group, contributing to long-term impact and continued support for a particularly vulnerable group.
