LGBT Inclusion and Sustainable Development Goals
This policy brief is designed for charities, governments and other organisations involved in aid-spending and international development. The guide will help them to understand the issues and include LGBT people in their programmes. It suggests practical actions and provides best-practice examples from around the world.
The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were agreed by 193 governments and will set the agenda for international cooperation for the next 15 years.

Christian Role Models
The 20 stories in this booklet tell of LGBT people who have reconciled their sexuality and/or gender identity with their faith, and of non-LGBT Christians who believe that accepting and affirming LGBT poeple is the Christ-like response.
