The LGBT+ Rights Survey is a method of avaliating nations human rights, equality and opportunity related to the LGBT+ population. The Survey uses the same parameters as the Rainbow Europe LGBT+ Rights Survey (click on it to go to Rainbow Europe website). The only difference is that this Survey was adapted in form of a questionnaire in order to avaliate nations answering it. The questions were based of The Arthurian Isles (Check his Survey here)
However, there are none active LGBT+ Rights Survey currently, so the government of The Norden Utopia decided to remake the questionnaire, adding new questions about more current topics. Each question has a value attached to it. The index varies from 0 (blatant LGBT+ human rights violations) to 10 (full protection of LGBT+ human rights). There are 6 categories used to measure the final index, and they are: Equality & Non-discrimination, Family, Hate Crime and Hate Speech, Legal Gender Recognition and Bodily Integrity, Civil Society Space and Asylum
We recommend that you read the FAQ section (below the post) before applying. Any questions not on the FAQ may be sent directly in the forum or by telegram
