Equaldex's first Office Hours begins at 5:30PM Pacific! We'll be covering some proposed changes to the Equality Index and public opinion surveys, opening it up for discussion, and then we'll have a Q&A. Prepare any questions you have about Equaldex! https://t.co/ErriQKjCFC

As the U.S. State Department's travel resources for LGBTQ+ individuals become increasingly inadequate following changes under Trump, @Frommers recommends Equaldex as a trusted source for up-to-date #LGBTQ+ rights data worldwide.

[Frommer's @Frommers]

Safety information is still widely available to LGBTQ+ travelers.

The U.S. State Department may have reneged on assisting its queer citizens, but here's a list of many other places where travel info is reliable and free.

@Trollandier Note that some countries have more public opinion data available than others. If you've seen data that is different than Equaldex's score, feel free to contribute it to the site and the score will update after its reviewed by our editors. :)

[Equaldex @equaldex]

@Trollandier Hi -- the public opinion data is based on reputable polls. All of the data is publicly available. You can see under the "public opinion" section all of the polls available for each country (of which the public opinion index is based on).

Russia, which currently scores 23 out of 100 on Equaldex’s Equality Index, is one of the platform’s top 20 countries in terms of traffic. For Russia’s LGBTQ+ community, sites like Equaldex are a vital resource, and the Russian government is cutting off a lifeline.

[Equaldex @equaldex]

Equaldex, a global database tracking LGBTQ+ rights, has been threatened with a ban in Russia. The government has demanded that content that “promotes LGBT relationships” be removed within 24 hours. If Equaldex does not comply — which it of course will not — it will be blocked.

Looking at public opinion data from Equaldex as well as guidance from IGLTA, we pick a few standouts—outside the usual havens in North America and Europe. https://t.co/gErB6AVv0E

@CNviolations "A report [...] notes 27 LGBTQ people were reported murdered in the country in 2023, and government authorities did not adequately respond to them. This situation has intensified during the armed conflict in the country."

@jym_m Thank you! We made links required since most logged out reports were making claims without supplying any sources to back it. But noted — good point. 🙂
