"As we celebrate the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, I would like to pay tribute to all those in Europe and beyond who are promoting the rights of LGBTI people and fighting discrimination and prejudices", said Eva Kjer Hansen, Minister for Equal Opportunities of Denmark. "In this fight for equal opportunities regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, everyone can play a role, at their level of responsibility. "

"Alliances for solidarity is the theme chosen this year. It reminds us of the need to adopt a comprehensive approach to the defense and promotion of rights for all people belonging to disadvantaged groups or in vulnerable situations, as well as the importance of joining forces to achieve equal rights for all.
