Arcigay's work with and for LGBTI migrants, and in particular with LGBTI asylum seekers, has its roots in 2008, with the project \u201cImmigration and Homosexuality\u201d<\/strong>, when Arcigay published the first guides for workers, volunteers, and for migrant people themselves (in the field of health and rights), materials updated and reprinted in 2014. Since then many local Arcigay committees have opened reception, guidance and support desks for LGBTI asylum seekers<\/strong>. Through only 6 reception desks for LGBTI migrants and asylum seekers (Turin, Padua, Modena, Perugia, Naples, Palermo) Arcigay in 2015 and 2016 supported respectively 107 migrants and 100 LGBTI asylum seekers thanks to its committees<\/strong> with initial orientation activities, of which 70 and 63 were followed throughout the asylum application process, and 63 and 56 obtained some form of protection. However, there are more Arcigay asylum seeker counters, even in other cities (Milan, Rome, Genoa, etc.).<\/p>\n Currently Arcigay, through specialized branches, guarantees support to LGBTI migrants and asylum seekers only in some Italian cities but through MIGRANET wants to support the diffusion of branches throughout the national territory.<\/strong><\/p>\n The MIGRANET program is divided into several phases and aims to:<\/p>\nThe target<\/h3>\n
