BORRILLO, Daniel Ángel and GUTIERREZ-CASTILLO, Víctor Luis. Towards a Systemic Analysis of the Evidence Assessment in Asylum Claims on the Basis of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity in the Common European Law. Anu. Mex. Der. Inter [online]. 2021, vol.21, pp.741-772. Epub Jan 21, 2022. ISSN 1870-4654. https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24487872e.2021.21.15608.
This paper analyzes the different legal aspects of the evidence assessment in asylum claims on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. More specifically, it gives special attention to the applicant’s account both at the stage of the submission of the asylum application and in the stage of the assessment by the national authorities. This research is focused mainly on the European Union law and the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union on this matter.
