Arabic LGBTQ Terminology: A Guide for NIJC Interpreters and Staff
This guide offers an overview of terminology relevant to conducting and interpreting intake interviews with Arabic-speaking LGBTQ asylum seekers. While much of the information presented here presumes competence in Arabic, the document still offers insight pertinent to non-Arabic-speaking staff working with Arabic-speaking clients. Accordingly, it is likely most helpful when read and discussed in advance of an intake by both the interpreter and the interviewer.
