Abstract

Farmer explores the ways in which UK-based NGOs engage with UK governmental actors on international LGBT issues to provide a more comprehensive understanding of UK-based contributions to transnational LGBT activism. The chapter focuses on the establishment of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Global LGBT Rights, as well as the international interventions of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, and the Department for International Development. Farmer provides a detailed examination of UK governmental and NGO participation in LGBT aid conditionality, arguing that UK actors failed to adequately contextualise contemporary LGBT rights within a broader understanding of aid relations and coloniality.
