Today is International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia #IDAHOBIT2026 The global focus for 2026 is “At the heart of democracy” – a reminder that truly democratic societies must be grounded in justice and freedom for all. 👉65 UN member States still criminalize consensual same-sex sexual acts. 👉🏽At least 62 restrict freedom of expression on sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sex characteristics issues. 👉🏼Legal gender recognition based on self-determination is only available in 18 countries at the national level. 👉🏾Only 9 UN member States restrict unnecessary medical interventions on intersex minors at the national level. And yet, time and again, LGBTQIA+ people have resisted these pressures, together with everyone who cares about their communities, and sowed the seeds of change. We must continue to fight the oppressive systems that tell us we don't deserve human rights. Change is possible if we continue to fight for it! Stay strong. RESIST!
