LGBT Asylum Support is a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) founded in 2015. The purpose of the organisation is to provide support for LGBTI-refugees in the Netherlands. Sandro Kortekaas founded LGBT Asylum Support as a response to the prohibition of ‘propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations’ by the Russian parliament. In collaboration with fellow LGBTI-organisations, LGBT Asylum Support provides support to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender -and Intersex refugees throughout the asylum procedure. The organisation serves both as a guide and a  safety net  for LGBTI-refugees. 

LGBTI-refugees flee from homophobic societies seeking legal protection. The asylum procedure in the Netherlands can be complicated and overwhelming. As a legal volunteer, you provide legal assistance to clients throughout the asylum procedure and buttress their asylum application based on provided source material.
