<p style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;margin:0px"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><b>Abstract:</b></span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> LGBTQ+ communities are often rendered invisible within disaster infrastructure worldwide. Bias in federal
disaster response programmes, a lack of recognition of LGBTQ+ families, and the prevalence of faith-based organisations in disaster relief services together heighten the risks that LGBTQ+ individuals face. This talk will describe the ways in which this reality
combines with the contextual vulnerability of LGBTQ+ communities, whereby existing inequalities and marginalisation are exacerbated during disasters and in their aftermath. As a result, the immediate trauma of a disaster, such as physical injury or the loss
of loved ones or possessions, is compounded in multiple ways for LGBTQ+ individuals, making them less likely to benefit from disaster relief services. </span></p>
