ABSTRACT
This research paper explores the intricate landscape of gender jurisprudence in a globalizing era, focusing on the dichotomy between retributive and recognition frameworks and their implications for LGBTQI+ communities. The aim of this study is to analyse how varying legal approaches to LGBTQI+ identities impact the rights and lived experiences of individuals within diverse cultural and legal contexts. Employing a comparative analysis of legal frameworks across multiple countries, the paper examines historical and contemporary trends in LGBTQI+ rights, the effects of globalization on legal reform in achieving Sustainable Development Goal -5 (SDG-5), and the roles of international organizations and grassroots movements in advocating for equality. The study reveals a significant disparity in LGBTQI+ rights across jurisdictions, with some enforcing punitive measures and others promoting equality. It calls for a balanced approach that respects cultural diversity while protecting universal human rights. It suggests ongoing advocacy, research, and legal reforms to dismantle systemic discrimination and create a world where LGBTQI+ identities are recognized and protected equally.
Keywords: Gender jurisprudence, SDG-5, LGBTQI+, Dichotomy, Criminalization, Reforms.
