LGBT is legal within Niger on a technicality; it is not mentioned within the country's criminal statutes because most authorities do not believe the concept exists.[1] The country does not have any anti-discrimination laws and there is no clear "queer community".[1] These citizens experience legal and social challenges not experienced by non-LGBT people, for instance their relationships are not legally acknowledged and they can't adopt.[citation needed] While queer people experience discrimination, according to the U.S. Department of State’s 2010 Human Rights Report there were no known cases of violence against queer people based on sexual orientation or gender identity.[2]
