Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people in Libya face legal and social challenges not experienced by non-LGBTQ residents. Homosexual activity is criminalised for both men and women within Libya, and homophobic attitudes are prevalent throughout the country. Since the fall of the Gaddafi regime in 2011, the discriminatory laws regarding homosexuality in Libya remain unchanged.
