These findings, from a research on LGBT street children and adolescents in HCM, conducted by the Institute for Studies of Society, Economy and Environment (iSEE) and Save the Children International (SCI), were released in a workshop on protecting the rights of these children yesterday.
PhD Nguyen Thu Nam of iSEE said LGBT street children's lives were full of hazards including irregular meals and sleeping places, lack of health care, threats of violence and harassment, and the potential dangers of HIV and other diseases.
The research results also showed that most of the respondents used tobacco, alcohol or marijuana.
