RFSL

RFSL (the Swedish Federation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex rights) works locally, nationally and internationally and is an ever growing organisation with about 7 000 members and 36 branches all over Sweden. RFSL runs many different activities and projects. For example, RFSL has a crime victim support unit and an educational and certifying unit, the project Newcomers (a support group for people who are newly arrived in Sweden) and a unit that works exclusively with HIV and health. RFSL’s international work is also extensive and we cooperate with LGBTQI organisations in, for example, South Africa and Indonesia. RFSL also works continually with political advocacy and opinion making. At branch level RFSL is a social meeting place where members can partake in different activities, such as lectures, café nights, pride celebrations and workshops
