May 17 marks the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia.

Amid rising pushback on rights and choices in the WHO/Europe Region & beyond, my #IDAHOBIT message of inclusion and #HealthForAll from a year ago is more urgent than ever:

On this #IDAHOBIT day, we reaffirm our support for LGBT rights worldwide. Ambassador John Gallagher emphasises these rights as fundamental human rights, not privileges. The UK🇬🇧 is proud to support NGOs like Right Side NGO Pink Armenia New Generation Humanitarian NGO (NGNGO/Armenia) for a more inclusive world.

'Despite undeniable progress, LGBTIQ+ people still face persistent discrimination, violence & marginalization here & across the world. Russia’s invasion has heightened these challenges'

- United Nations Ukraine chief Denise Brown, on the Int Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia & Transphobia.

Upholding human rights is crucial for ensuring access to HIV prevention, testing, treatment & care for all.

Respect for all people powers public health.

UNAIDS Global message on today's #IDAHOBIT : #RightsEqualsHealth for all ✊🏾🌈

ВСЕ государства обязаны гарантировать права всех людей.

Дискриминация НЕДОПУСТИМА.

Необходимо прекратить ограничительные и дискриминационные законы, политики и практики.

#RightsEqualsHealth #IDAHOBIT

On this day and every day we stand in solidarity with LGBTQ+ people.

Patriarchal, racist, homophobic, laws & beliefs undermine health and hurt everyone.

We challenge those.

Respect for all people is what powers progress.

To protect the well being of everyone, we have to protect the rights of everyone!

Laws that criminalize same-sex relations undermine the human rights of LGBTIQ+ people, which impacts their health and increases their vulnerability to HIV.

Discrimination is unacceptable.

There's simply no justification for denying any person’s human rights based on their sexual orientation or gender identity.

Respect for all people powers public health.

To protect everyone's health, it is essential to protect everyone's rights. UNAIDS is urging the withdrawal of the declaration in Peru that categorises trans people as mentally ill. Trans people, like all people, need and deserve dignity and respect.
