The new Ipsos survey across 26 countries finds gender, generational and geographical divides on everything from same-sex marriage to brands supporting the community

Understanding attitudes to diversity and the role of organisations and brands has never been more important. Our report shows that more Irish adults celebrate and are an ally of the LGBT Community. Ireland has more awareness of discrimination than global findings as 33% of Irish Adults say they have spoken out against someone who was being prejudiced against LGBT people, highest for Gen Z women at 50%.
