Strengthen the response of the security and justice sector (police, prosecution, and / or judiciary) to prevent violence against LGBTQ + people, and provide adequate attention in cases of victimization. In particular, this TC aims to: i) deepen the existing information on violence against LGBTQ + people and in particular, on their interactions with the institutions of the security and justice sector to identify the main challenges that these people face with said institutions, ii ) Generate a standardized protocol model of care for LGBTQ + people to prevent violence and discrimination by security and justice institutions, and provide adequate services to these populations, and iii) generate regional spaces for dialogue and training for security personnel and justice on said protocol model.
ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IADB
The Independent Consultation and Investigation Mechanism (MICI) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who have been or are likely to be adversely affected by an Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) or Inter-American Investment Corporation (IIC)-funded project. If you submit a complaint to MICI, they may assist you in addressing the problems you raised through a dispute-resolution process with those implementing the project and/or through an investigation to assess whether the IDB or IIC is following its own policies for preventing or mitigating harm to people or the environment. You can submit a complaint by sending an email to MICI@iadb.org. You can learn more about the MICI and how to file a complaint at http://www.iadb.org/en/mici/mici,1752.html (in English) or http://www.iadb.org/es/mici/mici,1752.html (Spanish).
