International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia

Today, on May 17, we mark International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia. We celebrate human diversity and reaffirm the dignity and inherent worth of all people, regardless of who they are or whom they love. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) rights are human rights – all people deserve equal dignity and to live free from fear, violence, and discrimination.
