They can use their access to raise the importance of protections for LGBT people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2022 World Cup in Qatar has placed the spotlight on an important social issue.

a blind eye to homophobic laws.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Failing to act in support of LGBT people where help is needed most means global companies will have to justify whether their public
