LGBTI Persons and Access to Justice

The book brings together an array of articles on selected aspects of access to justice of LGBTI people in several legal cultures. The essays presented in the book were first delivered at the University of Bergamo in May 2015 during the final conference of the project Litigious Love: Same-Sex Couples and Mediation in the EU which has received funding by the DG Civil Justice of the European Commission. Inspired by the principles of the Access to Justice Movement, this book includes extensive discussion on legal, social, and procedural issues that lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans-gender and intersex people face in accessing justice.

Il volume raccoglie una selezione dei paper presentata in occasione di un convegno svoltosi a Bergamo nel maggio 2015, quale conferenza finale del progetto europeo Litigious Love: Same-Sex Couples and Mediation in the EU (co-finanziato dalla Commissione europea, DG Civil Justice). I temi trattati riguardano l'accesso alla giustizia per le persone LGBTI in differenti contesti giuridici e culturali e le barriere che possono incontrare nell'accesso ai diritti e alle libertà costituzionalmente riconosciute.
