Femcit WP 6 researchers Tone Hellesund and Ana Cristina Santos have recently published chapters about Norway and Portugal, respectively, in the Greenwood Encyclopedia of LGBT Issues Worldwide (Chuck Stewart, ed., 2010, California: Greenwood Press/ ABC Clio).

This 3-volume contributed set gathers information about the status of LGBT people in more than 80 countries. It is organised geographically and it lists information on a range of issues including community, education, employment, government programs, health, law, religion and violence, amongst others.

Hellesund’s chapter, on Norway, and Santos’s chapter, about Portugal, both discuss these issues in relation to their respective countries, adding a final section that includes an outlook for the 21st century, as well as a resource guide with suggested readings and other materials.
