ILGA-Europe have produced the Rainbow Map and Index since 2009, using it to illustrate the legal and policy situation of LGBTI people in Europe. The Rainbow Map and Index ranks 49 European countries on their respective legal and policy practices for LGBTI people, from 0-100%.
The Rainbow Map and Index presents a picture of what the policy landscape is like currently. The 2023 Rainbow Map and Index finds that trans and intersex rights at the forefront of positive change for LGBTI people in Europe.
For the eighth year in a row, Malta continues to occupy the number one spot on the Rainbow Europe Map, with a score of 89%. Belgium now occupies the second place and Denmark comes third palace with a score of 76%.
Spain, Iceland, Finland, Moldova, Switzerland, and Croatia are the countries with the biggest jump in scores. Spain introduced a comprehensive law that regulates legal gender recognition based on self-determination, banned genital mutilations on intersex minors, prohibited so-called “conversion” practices and outlawed discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex characteristics.
The four countries at the other end of the Rainbow Europe scale are Azerbaijan (2%), Türkiye (4%), Armenia (8%) and Russia (8%), exactly the same as the last years.
