Reporting LGBTQI+phobia

published on 25 April 2020

• Anti-discrimination

Brussels Prevention & Security and the Brussels Regional Public Service (equal.brussels) together with RainbowHouse Brussels are conducting a data collection project on violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. In collaboration with various partners, a reporting form on such facts has been developed and came into force early March 2019. To support this approach, new resources are currently available for victims of LGBTQI+phobia.

Whether it is a verbal or physical attack or harassment, we are here to listen and to guide you to the right services. Whether on the street, in the workplace or in a private situation, the report form enables us to identify all types of LGBTQI+phobic acts. You hesitate to file a complaint? Do you want a written statement of your story? You do not wish to file a complaint? By reporting an LGBTQI+phobic act you are helping to draw attention to all acts that are rarely reported to the authorities.

To facilitate the reception, there are two weekly sessions, an e-mail address (fiche@rainbowhouse.be) and a telephone number.
