Arab Initiative focuses on LGBT rights in the Arab world and in Sweden. In Sweden, we also organise social and cultural activities. Another important task is producing information for Arabic-speaking LGBTQ people. Our ultimate goal is for Arabic-speaking LGBTQ people to have the same access to information and support as everybody else in society, and to take an active part in the LGBTQ community.
