Abstract:
While the need for research, policy and practice addressing the health equity issues of Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and other sexual and gender minority (2S/LGBTQ+) populations is increasingly recognized, we acknowledge that significant gaps remain in this area. As authors in this themed issue have consistently pointed out, interventions that grapple with the intersectionally varied structural drivers of 2S/LGBTQ+ health remain lacking and, in particular, warrant urgent consideration. This is especially the case during a time when structural threats to the well-being of 2S/LGBTQ+ populations are on the rise, both in Canada and in other geopolitical contexts.
