This Research Summary provides an overview of LGBTQI+ rights in Slovenia from 1950 onwards. It covers important topics such as criminalization, legal and social repression, the road to decriminalization, the role of the European Union, and other modernization and democratization processes.

By highlighting milestones such as legal accomplishments and offering a brief assessment of relevant statistical data, the report provides an outline of LGBTQ people’s equality in Slovenia. Furthermore, a distinct emphasis will also be placed on topics such as age and ageing – with special attention being paid to LGBTQ people’s ageing.

This Summary is part of the research conducted by project TRACE – Tracing Queer Citizenship over Time: Ageing, ageism, and age-related LGBTI+ politics in Europe, based at the Centre for Social Studies, University of Coimbra, Portugal.

Project TRACE has produced six Research Summaries, covering Portugal, Italy, Greece, Malta, Slovenia, and the European Union.
