February 19, 2026 | 2 Comments

A national survey — conducted by Global Research in partnership with OUTBermuda – will be launched with an aim to gather information on the lived experiences of LGBTQ+ people connected to the island.

A spokesperson said, “Bermuda has launched its first national survey focused on the lived experiences of LGBTQ+ people connected to the island. Conducted by Global Research in partnership with OUTBermuda, the survey invites people to share what life is really like in Bermuda, safely and anonymously.

“It is designed to include people who are openly LGBTQ+, as well as those who do not feel safe enough to be out. The survey explores experiences across areas of daily life, including safety and belonging, access to healthcare and mental health support, experiences in schools and workplaces, community connection, and experiences of support or discrimination.

“The findings will help build a clearer picture of the realities LGBTQ+ people face and will be used to inform advocacy, strengthen programs, support funding, and guide policy conversations. The research will also contribute to the continued development of OUTBermuda’s Policy Manifesto and long-term work to help shape the Bermuda our community deserves.

Executive Director of OUTBermuda, Joshua Samuels said, “This survey is about listening, It creates space for people to share their experiences in their own words, including those who have not always felt safe enough to be visible.”

The spokesperson said, “The survey is open to people aged 18 and over who are LGBTQ+ and live in Bermuda, as well as LGBTQ+ Bermudians living overseas. Take the survey at https://www.research.net/r/LGBTQPlusSurvey2026

“Participants may choose to enter optional prize draws, including a luxury weekend stay at the Hamilton Princess and an early completion draw for a weekend stay at the Rosedon Hotel.”

    When your government is homophobic, and the majority of voters are homophobic, gay Bermudians enjoy their lives in other countries.

  2. A Towzer says:

    As much as they control certain things in this island, none of them should be afraid of anything. Shoot, as a heterosexual, I’m scared just to say that because they have ears everywhere and they are vindictive and some of the more powerful ones are racist.
