This chapter explores some of the complexity and ambivalences regarding LGBTIQ 'inclusive' development frameworks and LGBTIQ rights diplomacy. It examines problematic implications of LGBTIQ rights diplomacies and development frameworks and elucidates on the (im-)possibilities of queer agency and resistance within the configurations, particularly focusing on discussions and policy interventions related to the African context. The chapter discusses LGBTIQ rights diplomacies and development strategies within the sexualised and gendered coloniality of the international system and sheds light on some of the colonial and racialised genealogies of political agendas aimed at 'supporting' LGBTIQ rights in so-called 'developing' countries. It provides a more detailed postcolonial analysis of the agendas and illustrates how they are based on ideas of sexual modernisation which are aggravating, even hindering, the aim of 'promoting' LGBTIQ rights through diplomatic interventions and aid policies.
