Ipsos LGBT+Pride Global Survey NZ 2023
June 2023: In the Ipsos Pride 2023 global survey, we find that New Zealanders show strong support for protection from discrimination for transgender people, but we are more divided on other transgender discrimination issues.
This Ipsos Global Advisor survey also shows very positive attitudes in New Zealand towards same sex couples as parents, although we should aim for much greater acceptance.
June 12, 2023 – The Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2023 survey finds that an average of 9% of adults in 30 countries identify as LGBT+, with sharp generational differences. Other findings include:
• Increased LGBT+ visibility since the 2021 survey with large geographic variations remaining;
• Majority support in most (but not all) countries surveyed for allowing same-sex couples to marry and to adopt children; and
• Widespread support for protecting transgender people from employment and housing discrimination, but mixed views on other pro-transgender measures.
The survey was conducted by Ipsos on its Global Advisor online platform in February and March 2023 among more than 22,500 adults under the age of 75.
