LGBTQ Europe: Rainbow Europe score for rights of LGBTI people in Italy 2024

Italy was ranked 35th out of 48 European countries in terms of the legal, political and human rights protections which it grants its LGBTI citizens and residents, being awarded an overall score of only 25.41 percent by Rainbow Europe in 2024. Italy performs well only on the indicator of civil society space, still giving free reign to non-governmental LGBTI organizations to perform their activities within the country. On all other indicators, Italy does not manage to achieve 50 percent, with intersex bodily autonomy and hate crime & hate speech both receiving a zero, due to total lack of protections. Italy's politics has taken a turn towards right-wing nationalism and populism in recent years, with these political parties generally being hostile to LGBTI rights. Current Prime Minister Georgia Meloni will be in the international spotlight to see whether her government enact laws to curtail the freedoms of LGBTI people, possibly worsening their Rainbow Europe score in coming years.

在2024年，意大利在欧洲48个国家中就其对LGBTI公民和居民提供的法律、政治及人权保护方面排名第35位，仅获得Rainbow Europe评定的25.41%的整体得分。意大利在公民社会空间指标上表现尚佳，允许非政府LGBTI组织在国内自由开展活动。然而，在其他所有指标上，意大利均未能达到50%的得分，其中跨性别者身体自主权和仇恨犯罪及仇恨言论两项均获得零分，原因在于保护措施的完全缺失。近年来，意大利政治趋向于右翼民族主义和民粹主义，这些政党通常对LGBTI权利持敌对态度。现任总理乔治娅·梅洛尼将受到国际社会的关注，以观察其政府是否将通过法律限制LGBTI人群的自由，这可能会在未来几年降低其Rainbow Europe的评分。
