Actionable and culturally-appropriate SOGI data collection is crucial to understand and address issues like healthcare access and discrimination impacting LGBTQI+ communities.
Meaningful analysis of SOGI data can aid in resource allocation to address health disparities, as decision-makers often rely on research to support interventions.
Long-term SOGI data collection enables tracking trends and adapting resource allocation to changing needs over time.
