Abstract

Farmer explores how UK-based NGOs acknowledge and engage with the impact that coloniality and the legacies of British colonialism have had on contemporary international relations and global LGBT rights. The chapter explores UK-based NGO engagements with the legacies of colonial ‘sodomy laws’, the Commonwealth and the establishment of The Commonwealth Equality Network and the experiences of LGBT people seeking asylum in the UK. Farmer interrogates the degree to which UK-based actors challenge contemporary coloniality in these areas and whether their strategies could benefit from broader recognition of the impact of coloniality on LGBT people’s lives globally.
