The International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, is celebrated on May 17 to denounce the discrimination to which all people with sexual preferences different from conventional ones are subjected, such as homosexuals, transsexuals, bisexuals and lesbians around the world.
In 2021, the theme chosen for the campaign is "Together: Resisting, Supporting, Healing!", In a clear reference to the current context of recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The mayor of Equality, Elena Casado, has pointed out that "on a day like today in 1990, the World Health Organization (WHO) depathologized homosexuality.
Thirty-one years later, LGTBI people still cannot fully enjoy their rights.
We need to reverse This is why this 17M, International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, and every day we need a firm Commitment to LGTBI Rights.
LGTBI Rights are Human Rights ".
