Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people in Mali face legal and societal challenges not experienced by non-LGBTQ residents. Although same-sex sexual activity is not illegal in Mali, LGBTQ people face widespread discrimination among the broader population.[2] According to the 2007 Pew Global Attitudes Project, 98 percent[a] of Malian adults believed that homosexuality is considered something society should not accept, which was the highest rate of non-acceptance in the 45 countries surveyed.[3] The Constitution of Mali has outlawed same-sex marriage since 2023,[1] and the Malian government proposed a bill banning homosexual relations in 2024.[4]
The United States Department of States points to laws in Mali which prohibit "attacks on morality", and states these laws are used to target LGBTQ persons and are actively enforced.[5]
