The International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia (IDAHOBIT) was established to raise awareness of violations of LGBTQI rights, to highlight the work done to ensure global and universal respect for LGBTQI rights, engage people in dialogue, and stimulate action to combat discrimination against LGBTQI people and communities around the world.
On this International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia (IDAHOBIT), the Advisory Council on Youth condemns any kind of violence or discrimination against LGBTQI individuals. We call on governments to implement Recommendation CM/Rec(2010)5 of the Committee of Ministers to member states on measures to combat discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and gender equality.
The opinions expressed in this statement are those of the Advisory Council on Youth and do not necessarily reflect the official position of the Council of Europe or its member states.
