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

  12 months ago

  Every year on May 17^th, 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 17^th was chosen to commemorate the World Health Organization’s decision to declassify homosexuality as a mental disorder, on May 17^th 1990.

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