For the first time: New study to map LGBTQIA+ living terms in Greenland

This article has been translated to English using AI.

A new study aims to provide, for the first time, a broader insight into how LGBTQIA+ people in Greenland live, thrive, and experience their daily lives. The initiative is backed by several organizations that hope to build a stronger knowledge base about a group for which data has been limited until now.

The survey is open to people over the age of 15 who identify as LGBTQIA+ and live in Kalaallit Nunaat. Participants will have the opportunity to share their experiences regarding well-being, health, and living conditions, among other topics.

According to the organizers, there is currently a lack of systematic data on the situation of LGBTQIA+ individuals in Greenland. Therefore, the study aims to provide new insights that can be used in the long term to enhance understanding and create a better environment for this group.

The study was conducted by IPPS – the Council for Human Rights, SIpineq+, and the Center for Public Health in Greenland. The project is supported by the Nunafond and funds from the Tips and Lotto.
