The Rainbow Refugee Committee (RRC) is the only body that truly represents the interests and needs of LGBTQIA+ people in Belgium affected by asylum.

The members of its board of directors have experienced the same realities as the people it cares for and are therefore better qualified to speak on behalf of the diversity of experiences of LGBTQIA+ people undergoing forced migration, with a view to ensuring that the responses provided to their needs by the public authorities and the voluntary sector are as appropriate as possible for their specific needs.
