Abstract “The Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Transsexuals and Transgendered (LGBT) Stigma and Discrimination Index of Sri Lanka is a quantitative study of LGBT related stigma and discrimination faced by LGBT Sri Lankans living in Sri Lanka. The basis of the research is that LGBT people in Sri Lanka face such high levels of stigma and discrimination in their everyday lives that undermine their ability to access basic human rights. This particular research was conducted by EQUAL GROUND and analyses data collected with the aid of a questionnaire from 119 LGBT individuals to meet the aim of the research. The research employed ethical processes to ensure confidentiality. To support data analysis; tables, graphs and charts are used to represent information from the study. This LGBT Stigma and Discrimination Index of Sri Lanka found that LGBT people face discrimination such as physical, emotional, verbal and psychological abuse. Additionally, these forms of discrimination are faced in family, religious and social settings. LGBT people are also barred from accessing their basic human rights such as access to adequate housing, gainful employment, education and healthcare. LGBT related stigma in Sri Lanka is also gravely internalized. People who identify as LGBT or feel that they are; live in fear, seek harmful treatment they believe will cure them from what is thought a disease, and even consider or try to take their own lives.”
