What is International Organizations

This chapter investigates major influences on continued inequality of people who are LGBTQIA refugees. Through a summary of multidisciplinary literature across fields related to sociology, social work, legal analysis, and mental health treatment, this piece envisions ways to incorporate policy analysis and political science perspectives, arguing for an integrated framework that improves upon existing policy analyses and refugee/asylum studies. The discussion revolves around ways that the U.S. government contributes to LGBTQIA inequality in the United States and abroad through domestic and foreign policies that overlook the widespread human costs of U.S. policy.
