Introduction
Outright International’s new interactive map visualizes the alarming escalation of laws and policies targeting trans, nonbinary, and intersex people worldwide in 2025. Drawing from A Year in Attacks on Trans, Nonbinary, and Intersex People’s Human Rights, the map tracks restrictive measures country by country—from bans on gender-affirming health care to constitutional reforms erasing gender diversity from legal frameworks.
These attacks, fueled by anti-gender narratives gaining global traction after the 2024 U.S. election, expose a coordinated rollback of hard-won human rights. Each datapoint offers critical context, highlighting how discriminatory laws and rhetoric undermine equality, bodily autonomy, and dignity.
Explore the map to uncover global trends, regional patterns, and the far-reaching impact of these measures. Together, this human rights data underscores the urgent need for LGBTIQ advocacy and solidarity to advance global equality and protect the rights of all gender-diverse people.
