  • May 17th: International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia

    over 1 year ago

    Every year on May 17th, the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia is honoured. The day was created in 2004 to draw attention to the violence and discrimination experienced by Two Spirit, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Intersex, and Asexual people, and all people with diverse sexual orientations, gender identities, and sex characteristics. May 17th was chosen to commemorate the World Health Organization’s decision to declassify homosexuality as a mental disorder, on May 17th 1990.

    In recognition of the diversity across 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, this year’s theme is ‘Together always: United in diversity.”
