Launching the ISPC website

The Iraqi Social Progress Collective is now publicly online. This site is the entry point for our growing mutual aid network — a place where queer Iraqis and questioning people inside Iraq can find practical information, connect with community, and learn how to stay safe.

We have started with the resources we believe matter most: a multi-part HRT guide written specifically for the Iraqi context, a digital safety guide, and an explanation of how to reach the community via encrypted XMPP.

This is only the beginning. We will be adding more guides, stories from contributors, and news in the coming months. If you would like to help — whether by writing, translating, reviewing, or connecting us with verified resources — reach out.

You are not alone. We are here.
