dc.description.abstract	This Viewpoint was submitted in response to the call for papers on the theme “What is wrong with global health?”. We answer the question simply: global health under-represents the experiences of LGBT+ people. Queer contexts are missing from the pages of this journal—a strange exclusion given the journal’s commitment to diversity and inclusion of marginalised voices. Indeed, there is a general neglect within global health scholarship of the intersection between health inequities and LGBT+ populations in low-income and middle-income countries in Africa. This Viewpoint discusses the utility of LGBT-affirmative scholarship developed in South Africa, and its use and application in Nigeria and Cameroon.	en
