Abstract

This wording aims to examine the Bill No. 2.859/2021 of the Chamber of Deputies, which aims to include in the Refuge Statute of 1997 the debate on sex, sexual orientation and gender identity as hypotheses that would allow the request for recognition of the refugee status. In this way, we will appropriate the guidelines of the Constitution of the Republic of 1988 (CR/88), international documents and the opinions of specialists so that we can provide our perspective on LGBTQIA+ refugees and whether this eventual inclusion would be adequate in the light of Human Rights, and if appropriate, we will suggest refinements in this Bill No. 2.859/2021 of the Chamber of Deputies.
