Legalized Same-Sex Marriage (0 to +50 Points) - Is same-sex marriage legal and equal under the law in this country? If marriage is not equal, are civil unions legal? If not, does the country legally recognize foreign LGBTQ+ marriages? We ranked the scores for this metric based on how many years same-sex marriage has been legal in this country with the highest possible score being 50 points.Please note that the situation for LGBTQ+ people is constantly evolving in the region. However, keep in mind that (as in all instances of political unrest), the most marginalized people in society are often targets. Note on Russia/Ukraine: Russia and Ukraine were included in this study as the data collection began prior to the 2022 conflict. In this year’s update, we also added transgender murder rates, which weren’t included in our original 2019 study or the 2021 update. We utilized a mixed methods research design to create the index. We worked with academic researcher, Eliot Assoudeh PhD., to design the methodology and cross-reference all data. We created our LGBTQ+ travel safety index based on a total of ten ranking factors, each pertaining to the health and wellbeing of LGBTQ+ individuals.

We ranked 203 countries with available data, and then carefully examined LGBTQ+ rights for each country.
