LGBTI persons in detention: addressing prejudices, discrimination and abuses

SPW recommends the document “LGBTI persons deprived of their liberty: a framework for preventive monitoring”  because it considers very relevant that the Association for Prevention of Torture and Penal Reform International is not addressing the situation of persons whose sexual orientation and gender expression do not conform with dominant norms in prison systems. On the other hand, we also want to bring to the attention of readers that, as noted by Mauro Cabral, director of GATE a careful reading of text shows that the specific situation of intersex persons is absent from the analysis.
