About ILGA
ILGA, founded in 1978, is the world federation of national and local organisations
dedicated to achieving equal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and intersex (LGBTI)
people and their liberation from all forms of discrimination everywhere.
ILGA’s Vision
The vision of ILGA is of a world where the human rights of all are respected and where
everyone can live in equality and freedom; a world where global justice and equity are
assured and established regardless of the people’s sexual orientations, gender identities,
gender expressions and bodily diversity.
Mission:
* to act as a leading organisation and a global voice for the rights of those who face
discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation, gender identity and/or gender
expression and (sex) intersex,
* to work towards achieving equality, freedom and justice for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans
and intersex people through advocacy, collaborative action, and by educating and
informing relevant international and regional institutions as well as governments, media
and civil society,
* to empower our members and other human rights organisations in promoting and
protecting human rights, irrespective of people’s sexual orientation, gender identity
and/or gender expression and sex (intersex) and to facilitate cooperation and solidarity
among ILGA regions and members, and
* to promote the diversity and strengths of LGBTI people around the world.

Strategic Plan 2014-2018
The 2014 ILGA World Conference adopted the new Strategic Plan for 2014-2018.
ILGA’s Strategic Objectives for 2014-2018 are to:
1 Become a representative voice of LGBTI civil society within international organizations,
particularly the United Nations, through collaboration, engagement, and support of
members and partners.
2 Promote diversity, advance equality and effective application and enjoyment of human
rights standards and principles without discrimination based on sexual orientation,
gender identity and/or gender expression, and sex (intersex).
3 Reinforce and develop ILGA’s organisational capacity (Executive Board, Staff, Regions
and Members) to achieve political, social and institutional change.
5
THANKS AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
ILGA is grateful for the work and support of its volunteers, staff and Executive Board.
ILGA is particularly thankful to its members not only for their financial support but also
for the time and energy they commit to furthering ILGA’s aims and objectives.

Foreword from the CO-Secretaries General
This report highlights a fraction of the achievements of this 37-year old organisation that
continues to be dynamic and relevant to the global lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex
and queer movement. We are an organisation, which is made up of an ever-changing
movement that keeps growing in its recognition, credibility and maturity.
This report is an opportunity for you to take a glimpse into what we do and who we are.
Its contents are a manifestation of the hard work and courage of hundreds of activists
and allies in all regions of the world.
In 2014, we moved.
We moved office from one country to another and laid the ground for an increase in our
capacity, both within our head office and in our regional offices. We moved activists to
gather at five regional conferences. We moved efforts to ensure a strong LGBTIQ voice at
the United Nations. We moved the decision-making of the organisation to Mexico City for
the biennial World Conference.
However, we were moved by the successes of member organisations in their respective
countries and regions; by the relentless work in other countries where individuals risk
their lives to fight for what is right; and by the young activists who join older ones,
renewing the movement’s energy.
This is what empowers us to continue fighting for human rights and social justice,
discussing issues that matter to you, building bridges with institutions and other
movements, and bridging gaps within our own movement. This is also what affirms the
need for ILGA and its work.
Go ahead and treat this not as yet-another-report, but as a small window to the world of
LGBTIQ activists around the world.
We are honoured to be leading this
organisation and look forward to seeing
an ILGA that becomes stronger in its
capacity and impact. We are proud to
be ILGA. We hope you are too.
Ruth Baldacchino and
Helen Kennedy
Co-Secretaries General

A MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
The first year of ILGA’s new Strategic Plan (2014-2018), adopted by the Executive Board
in October 2013 and ratified by the World Conference in Mexico City in October 2014, is
behind us. Indeed, 2014 brought rapid and dramatic change, and in its wake it left clear
paths to broader cooperation and revealed new causes for optimism.
ILGA moved its head office from Brussels to Geneva, supported the organisation of three
out of five regional conferences (Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, Oceania),
organised a World Conference in Mexico City, hired its first Gender Identity and Gender
Expression Programme Officer, continued its support of regional offices in Buenos
Aires, Johannesburg and Hong Kong, published the 2014 issue of the State-Sponsored
Homophobia Report and related map, all while expanding its UN work, and awarding
former High Commissioner Navanethem Pillay for her outstanding accomplishments visà-vis LGBTI rights during her mandate and directly organising or supporting many other
activities listed in this report.
Consider the extraordinary demands made on our human resources – three of four staff
members relocated with the head office – and our accomplishments in 2014 are all the
more staggering, and just as rewarding in terms of results: Global South regions can
now realistically look at regional conferences as regular occurrences rather than oneoff occasions, thus making ILGA a much more tangible reality in the lives of member
organisations, while the World Conference in Mexico City – with close to 450 participants
– confirms, after the equally successful World Conference of Stockholm in 2012, that
ILGA conferences are becoming the occasion no one in the global LGBTI movement
wants to miss, as they provide a natural platform for activists and allies to meet, share
knowledge and experiences, and coordinate for future actions.
ILGA’s UN work, strengthened by a more solid cooperation with other NGOs and allies, is
stockpiling knowledge and contacts that are already encouraging regional organisations
and local groups to bolster their advocacy work with their relevant regional and national
human rights bodies, bridging the gap between affirmation of LGBTI human rights in the
international arena and the implementation of said rights at the local level.
Thanks to the dedication of its staff, the support of its board and of its funders, and the
direct engagement of its members, at the end of 2014 ILGA stands stronger than ever
before, placed at the heart of the United Nations, taking full advantage of its consultative
status with the ECOSOC Council, strengthening its three Global
South regions, and with new leadership elected at the World
Conference in Mexico, ILGA will expand its base, streamline
operations, and advance our collective campaign for the rights of
lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and intersex people.
Renato Sabbadini
Executive Director
Geneva, April 2015

ILGA moved its operations from Brussels to
Geneva in May 2014.
The new office is located in Rue
Rothschild, in front of Palais
Wilson where among others,
there is also the Office of the High
Commissioner for Human Rights.
ILGA’s new office is located in
the headquarters building of the
Graduate Institute of International
and Development Studies of
Geneva, one of Europe’s most
prestigious institutions in the field
of political science, international
law, international relations and
development studies. The Institute
was founded in 1972 with the
aim of training functionaries and
delegates of the United Nations.
The opening of the new office
represents a great opportunity
for ILGA to achieve its Strategic
Objectives, in particular in
becoming a representative voice
of LGBTI civil society within
international organizations,
particularly the United
Nations, through collaboration,
engagement, and support of
members and partners.

ILGA and the United Nations: 2014
A second resolution on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI)
After more than three years of waiting since the first Sexual Orientation and Gender
Identity (SOGI) resolution at the UN Human Rights Council that had been brought by
South Africa in June 2011, a second resolution passed in September 2014, brought
by Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Uruguay calling for an updated report by the UN to be
presented in June 2015.
The resolution passed with the support of States from all regions. It also did so this time
with an absolute majority. There was also a substantial increase in the margin of success.
With 47 States able to vote, it went from a vote margin of 4 in 2011 to a margin of 11. We
are seeing a change in governments’ views: the Philippines and Viet Nam were two notable
new “yes” votes.
ILGA had been involved in building collaborations of civil society efforts to bring about a
strong LGBTI voice to the United Nations calling for action.
For example, in recognition of the need for SOGI civil society to discuss goals and
strategy related to this potential resolution, ILGA co-organized with many other
organizations a meeting in Istanbul on 27-28 February 2014. At the meeting were
present more than forty SOGI activists from about 30 countries and all regions of ILGA,
including strong participation of Trans and Intersex activists.
The outcomes of the meeting include greater clarity amongst participants on the various
options available at the UN, and a clear sense of consensus on many key “asks” in a
future resolution.
10
The Human Rights Council
ILGA has been ensuring that LGBTI issues remain on other parts of the agenda of the
Human Rights Council.
\Statements have been made on many issues including on violence and discrimination
of LBTI girls and women, rainbow families, intersex concerns and, perhaps most
significantlty, a joint statement of more than 500 NGOs from around the world calling for
the UN to act and pass a resolution on SOGI issues.
ILGA, together with partners also organized an historic side event exclusively dedicated
to intersex issues, titled “Intersex People and Human Rights: Violations, Voices and
Visions” that took place on 11 March 2014. The panellists presented both powerful
testimonials and analysis, urging States to fulfill their responsibilities to stop human
rights abuses directed against intersex persons, including violations of rights to health,
dignity, equality, bodily autonomy, and freedom from torture and other cruel, inhuman or
degrading treatment.
ILGA organized other NGO events at all three HRC sessions during 2014 on
“Intersectionality and Impunity: Locating Sexual Orientation & Gender Identity in the
Human Rights Discourse”, “Women and Human Rights: a trans, intersex, lesbian and
bisexual perspective” and “The Time Has Come”, focussing on civil society briefing States
on their perspectives on bringing a resolution.
The Universal Periodic Review (UPR)
ILGA’s work with our members from all regions at the UPR has continued to strengthen.
All ILGA member organizations are now informed when their country is coming-up
for review, and ILGA provides strategic, logistical and drafting support to member
organizations and partners.
During 2014, there have been some several key moments in the UPR. In countries like
Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Italy and Bolivia, there was a marked increase in the
number of SOGI recommendations. In January and October, Vietnam and Fiji received
11
their first SOGI recommendations ever
respectively. In March, Ifeanyi Orazulike
from ICARH delivered a statement during
the adoption of Nigeria’s UPR Report
on the human rights situation in Nigeria
after the Same Sex Marriage Act was
adopted. And in September, Rainbow
Sunrise Mapambazuko and MOPREDS
prepared a statement on the compound
discrimination against LGBT persons in
the Democratic Republic of Congo for the
adoption of their country’s UPR Report,
to list but a few examples.
The active participation of our members
and partners and ILGA’s involvement
have clearly contributed to these
achievements.
“I just want to express
my most sincere
gratitude to ILGA
for being so helpful
and wonderful. This
was a really great
opportunity not just
me, but also the queer
groups in Malaysia and
Comango to highlight
the issues that we face
in Malaysia.”
Thilaga Panichpathom from Kryss
Malaysia
12
“ILGA gave us essential
technical support to
understand the UPR.
ILGA was the most
important partner to
make our voices heard
at the Human Rights
Council and it gave us the
tools during the national
and international UPR
process. This opportunity
is given every four years
and we always had the
dream to use this space
for the LGBT cause.
Thank you so much for all
the support. ”
Frank Arteaga from Manodiversa - Bolivia
UN Human Rights Treaty Bodies
ILGA started to cover the work of the UN
Treaty Bodies more systematically, and
as for the UPR now also informs all ILGA
member organizations when their country is
coming-up for review.
On 7 July 2014 in Geneva, ILGA – led by
the ILGA Women’s Secretariat – presented
a statement at the CEDAW session on
education with particular focus on the
educational needs of LBTI women.
13
What is a human rights treaty body? Human rights treaty
bodies are committees of independent experts that monitor
implementation of the core international human rights treaties
such as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the
International Covenant on Economic Social and Cultural Rights, the
Committee Against Torture, the Committee on the Elimination of
Discrimination Against Women and the Commission on the Rights of
the Child. Human rights advocates can raise issues at these bodies
when their country comes up for review
The Commission on the Status of Women (CSW)
At the CSW ILGA organized a side event: “Development Challenges for Lesbian and
Bisexual women, Trans and Intersex people.” Attention was given to specific development
obstacles faced by women/people because of their sexual orientation, gender identity
and their sex and was attended by more than 50 people.
World Health Organization (WHO)
ILGA worked jointly with Global Action for Trans Equality (GATE) to hold a meeting in
Geneva on 8-9 September 2014 for intersex activists to discuss approaches to intersex
in the ICD. The two-day meeting included a strategising session on how to persuade
the WHO to take intersex concerns seriously followed by a discussion on how to make
the UN human rights system and the WHO work in concert with intersex activists to
bring about real changes.
Training on the UN to support local change
An increase in focus is how the UN system can support local change for LGBTI
communities. To that end, training on how to use the UN in strategic ways was provided
to ILGA member organizations at the following ILGA conferences in 2014: Pan Africa
ILGA (Nairobi: 24 to 28 March), ILGA LAC (Havana: 6 to 10 May), ILGA Oceania (Darwin:
14 May), ILGA Europe (Riga: 8 to 11 October) and at the ILGA World Conference (Mexico
City: 27 to 31 October).

PAN AFRICA ILGA (PAI) REGIONAL CONFERENCE NAIROBI, KENYA
PAI’s Regional Conference – 24-28 March, Nairobi – attended by 120 participants
representing 90 African organisations and international partners successfully:
* Provided a platform for the membership to elect new PAI leadership: Yahia Zaidi,
Jabulani Pereira, Caine Youngman, Anthony Oluoch, Samuel Opio, Richard Lusimbo,
Bachir Ali Toudert, Monica Tabengwa, Kholod Bidak, Akudo Oguaghamba.
* Revised and adopted the PAI constitution and the strategic framework.
* Voted for PAI to be formally registered in South Africa, and initially hosted by ILGA
member organization, Iranti-Org.
* Trained activists from all sub-regions on the Universal Periodic Reviews and Special
Procedures to raise thematic and country-specific human rights issues around gender,
sex and sexuality within the UN System while providing training on securing human
rights documentation and other digital matters.
* Advocacy training at the African Commission for Peoples’ & Human Rights (ACHPR) was
postponed in order to identify the best partners for it.

15
Lessons Learned
* More African workshops delivered by African organisations that focus on the context of
Africa are needed.
* Solidarity and political consciousness within the growing African LGBTI youth
community movement must be prioritized.
Core Values
* Equal representation and participation across language, sexual orientation, gender
identity, regional and racial lines.
* Recognizing the intersections of all human rights issues with those of organisations
working on SOGI issues and advocating for their integration into the broader human
rights framework.
* Increase participation of African LGBTI organisations within human rights mechanisms
such as the UNHRC and ACHPR.
* Creating safe spaces while building partnerships regionally and globally in the execution
of our work.
Strategic Focus
* Collaborate with coalitions and other organisations to increase visibility, access and
participation in regional and global spaces. PAI will ensure the participation of the
underrepresented central, northern, and west African LGBTI groups.
* Implement a communications strategy
to make resources on LGBTI work
readily available thereby strengthening
the network of local LGBTI
organisations and other stakeholders.
* Increase knowledge and understanding
of the UNHRC and the ACHPR among
African LGBTI organisations and
highlight specific human rights issues
as they relate to LGBTI issues.
* Strengthen and support the coordination functions of member organisations as they
engage with governments and development partners.
Thematic Areas of Focus
* The safety and security for LGBTI organisations and individuals across Africa.
* To combat the negative effects of religious fundamentalism on the work and lives of
LGBTI people.
* To influence SOGI resolutions at the UNHRC and the ACHPR and other human rights
mechanisms.

VI ILGA-LAC Regional Conference - Cuba 2014
The 6th ILGA-LAC Regional Conference, held from 6-10
May 2014 in Havana and Varadero, Cuba, were five electric
days that witnessed academics, NGOs, scientists, and LGBTI
activists discuss ideas, share experiences, revel in victories,
and ponder setbacks in the spirit of solidarity against all
forms of discrimination and exclusion based on sexual
orientation, gender identity, and expression.
Indeed, the level of cooperation that comes from a strong
sense of unity requires an equally inspiring backdrop, not just
visually but organizationally. ILGA-LAC’s experience of its 6th
conference was one of consistent accommodation.
“We were made to feel our only responsibility was to build bridges, collaborate, and focus
on what we could learn from one another,” said Pedro Paradiso, ILGA LAC’s Executive
Director. “Facilitating a setting like this produces a unique harmony among social
justice advocates, and for this we broadly offer our gratitude to our host organisation
– CENESEX Centro Nacional de Educacion Sexual de Cuba (National Center for Sexual
Education) – and specifically to CENESEX’s Director, Mariela Castro.”
400 activists from 24 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean made 2014’s regional
conference the largest in ILGA-LAC’s history.
17
Despite the entrenched sexism and
heteronormative bias, and in the face of
cultural differences and troubling public
policy many would count this region among
the most progressive and innovative in its
promotion of LGBTI equality worldwide.
As host of the 6th Regional Conference
ILGA-LAC, Cuba is not exempt from the
problems of LGBTI communities in the
region, despite the recent legislative
advances. While the Cuban LGBTI
movement lacks the organization of other international movements, one can see
evidence of a more and more mainstreamed fight against discrimination based on sexual
orientation and gender identity throughout the country.
The objectives of the conference were to promote debate
among activists, leaders, and scientists concerning the fight
for the civil and human rights of LGBTI people, and against
all forms of discrimination.
Pre-Conferences:
* Pre Conference of Lesbian and Bisexual Women
* Pre Conference Trans
* Pre Conference of Gay Men and Bisexuals
* Pre LGBTI Youth Conference
Working Groups:
* Hate Crimes, discrimination and violence
* Mobilization and Participation Policy
* Families and Health
* LGBT Public Policy in Cuba
* Communications
Figures:
* 2 Locations: Varadero and
Havana, Cuba
* 400 Participants
* 24 Countries assistants
* 48 Speakers

ILGA OCEANIA HOLDS ITS FIRST REGIONAL
CONFERENCE
Taking advantage of the possibility of using the same premises of the human rights
conference associated with the Pacific Outgames, ILGA-Oceania was able to organise its
first ever conference in Darwin (Australia) on 13-14 May. Twenty delegates (Oceania is the
smallest of all ILGA regions in terms of membership) from Australia, New Zealand and a few
Pacific Islands (Samoa, Fiji, Tonga) were able to approve a Constitution and elect a Board.
During the ILGA Oceania conference, participants engaged in a training on various UN
processes. These included specific training on how to make a submission to the UPR
process, presented together with Jack Byrne from New Zealand who had engaged in
the UPR of his country. Participants discussed possibilities for engagement with the
upcoming UPR reviews of Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Australia, Micronesia, Nauru,
Palau, Papua New Guinea and Samoa. There was also an introduction to the UN Treaty
Bodies with specific reference
to the UN Committee Against
Torture and the upcoming
review of Australia in late
2014, as well as Fiji’s
upcoming review under the
UN Committee on the Rights
of the Child, also in late 2014.
The training concluded with a
discussion on Oceania’s unique
contribution to global LGBTI
issues with its perspectives
on gender identities and
expressions.
19
ILGA NORTH AMERICA HELD ITS FIRST
REGIONAL MEETING
ILGA North America’s first regional summit was held in June 2014 as an affiliated event
of World Pride 2014 (Toronto, Canada). Participants included:
* 35 representatives from ILGA member-groups PAI, ILGA-LAC and ILGA-Asia,
* 22 North American member and supporting organizations,
* Co-Secretary General of ILGA, Gloria Careaga Pérez and
* ILGA Executive Director, Renato Sabbadini.
The Summit examined the increase in opposition to global LGBTI rights and prioritized
legal protections and cultural change as tools to improve the day-to-day lives of LGBTI
people. Five representatives from the Global South discussed on-the-ground struggles
for SOGI rights. This report inspired and galvanized their growing membership as they
focused on:
* Potential achievements of uniting under the ILGA North America umbrella.
* Identifying the region’s natural and strategic partners.
* Strategic opportunities for future collaboration.
The summit also finalized and adopted ILGA-NA’s new constitution and handbook
Three programmatic areas were identified as vital to ILGA’s growth in North America:
* Bring the progressive politics and networks of unions and labor rights organizations in
for productive cooperation.
* Create opportunities for individual members, and ILGA-NA as a whole, to resist North
American religious extremism.
* Increase collaboration with ILGA-LAC, and other hemispheric bodies, particularly the
Organization of American States.
The ILGA-NA regional meeting at the ILGA World Conference in Mexico City
implemented new voting rules and leadership structure. It also identified key
opportunities for their newly-elected board to act on these three programmatic areas
from 2015-16.

ILGA-Europe Annual Conference 2014
The ILGA-Europe Annual Conference 2014 took place in Rīga, Latvia, from 9 to 11
October 2014, under the themeMOVEment: Leading Sustainable Change.
It is the largest LGBTI political event in Europe, and in 2014 it brought together almost
350 human rights activists and decision makers from 48 different countries.
Throughout the conference
the participants discussed the
main theme in a series of panel
discussions and workshops
focusing on strategic responses to
developments, from the Vaticanled ‘anti-gender theory’ movement
to Putin’s Russia anti-‘propaganda’
laws, the militant homophobia
of evangelical fundamentalist
movements and conservative and
reactionary forces worldwide.
Keynote speakers included Helena
Dalli (Maltese Civil Liberties Minister),
Charles Radcliffe (Chief of Global
Issues Section at the Office of the UN
High Commissioner of Human Rights,
and senior UN human rights adviser
on sexual orientation and gender
identity), Marja Ruotanen (Director
of Human Dignity and Equality within
the Directorate General of Democracy,
Council of Europe) and Graeme Reid
(Director of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
and Transgender Rights Program at
Human Rights Watch). ILGA-Europe’s
conference also hosted the first
Queer- ED Talk which was held by Jordi
Vaquer(Director of the Open Society
Initiative for Europe and the regional
director for Europe at the Open Society
Foundations).

ILGA WORLD CONFERENCE
ILGA’s 27th World Conference took
place in Mexico City, Mexico between the
27th-31st October 2014 under the theme
“Decolonizing Our Bodies.”
Over 400 LGBTI activists and
representatives of civil society
organizations from around the world
came together for a week of workshops,
networking, analysis and discussions
in support of both strengthening and
celebrating the global LGBTI movement.
The Mexico conference has been an important one both for the governance of the
organisation (including changes to the ILGA Constitution – such as the change of the
registered office from Brussels to Geneva and the introduction of a Treasurer – and
the election of the first Intersex Secretariat and of two new co-Secretaries General:
Ruth Baldacchino from Malta and Helen Kennedy from Canada) and for the wide
variety of its content: 24 workshops during the conference proper (i.e. from 29-31)
and 12 events on 27 & 28, including pre-conferences, regional caucuses and thematic
conferences.
22
(Jesse Vilela President, Sociedad Trans FTM,European Parliament Co-President Ulrike Lunacek, Anne Lim Executive
Director Galang, Philippines and Kholoud Mahdhaoui, President Chouf, Tunisia
The European Parliament’s Intergroup on LGBT rights honoured three
LGBTI organisations for doing outstanding work in spite of operating in
volatile contexts.
European Parliament Co-President Ulrike Lunacek, handed the Go
Visible Award certificate and an additional 1000 euros to Galang
(Philippines), Sociedad Trans FTM (Peru) and Chouf (Tunisia). Receiving
the awards on behalf of their organisations were Anne Lim, Executive
Director Galang; Jesse Vilela, President Sociedad Trans FTM and
Kholoud Mahdhaoui, President Chouf.
23
The intense program of World Conference included the presence of three
pre-conferences on:
Interfaith
Co-organized with GIN, Global Interfaith Network, the Interfaith Pre-Conference took
place on 27 October to respond to the growing needs of ILGA members to adapt lessons
from successful models of religious LGBTI organizing. The Interfaith pre-conference
also provided support, networking, and training opportunities for faith-based members
to partner with groups or support activists on the ground to create events that
increase pro-LGBTI religious dialogue with adversaries, and document the need for an
efficacy of LGBTI faith-based organizing. The goal is to see the lessons resulting from
these collaborations disseminate to all ILGA members with best practices for how to
incorporate religious dialogue and reconciliation into their current models where the faith
component is lacking.The total number of attendees to the Interfaith Pre-Conference was
113 throughout the day. In addition to the programme, the pre-conference also hosted
the following opportunities:
* members’ meeting for Global Interfaith Network (30 in attendance) to introduce new
members to the organization and take feedback on our strategic plan
* meeting among interfaith activists (15 in attendance) and faith-oriented donors (10 in
attendance)
* meeting among GIN, arguably a globally representative body creating a significant
stakeholdership in this work, and funders (8 different foundations in attendance)
Intersex
An intersex pre-conference in Mexico City took place between 27-28tOctober. A total
of 10 intersex activists participated and discussed in detail the next steps for intersex
activism for ILGA and the function of its newly elected intersex secretariat.
24
Using the Malta Declaration as a guiding document, a discussion took place about the
long-term goals and outcomes for the intersex movement. The discussion focused on
medical, legal and community aspects of intersex work. The Pre-Conference held a
discussion on mapping the situation of intersex people around the world, similar to other
maps e.g. like on equality legislation, marriage, discrimination laws.
Trans
The Trans Pre-Conference took place between 27-28 October with the aim of developing
basic and advanced instruments for national and international advocacy of Trans rights
to strengthen the links between different regions and activists. The pre-conference
focused mainly on language, e.g. the term “Trans” adopted as umbrella term in the
Barcelona Gender Identity Congress in 2009, referring to all gender non-conforming
people, while respecting and recognizing the number of identities that may be covered
by this term, and the term “gender identity”, as used internationally to refer to trans
people, and “gender expression”, while examining the current status of the process
of depathologisation of trans identities at the UN and touching briefly the importance
of strategic litigation for the advancement of trans* rights. The Trans Pre-Conference
was attended by about 50 Trans activists and a good number of allies. A report of the
Pre-Conference was presented to the World Conference on its first day and it was
unanimously adopted.
WORKSHOPS ON THE WORK WITH
THE UNITED NATIONS
During the ILGA World Conference held
in Mexico from 27 to 31 October 2014,
there were four workshops covering topics
related to work at the UN attended by a
total of more than 50 activists from 23
countries.
25
The workshops were as follows:
1. Working in Intergovernmental Spaces
The purpose of the meeting was to provide
participants with an opportunity to share
experiences of work taking place at the
intergovernmental level, to evaluate how
effective was the work being done at
the intergovernmental level, and how it
addresses real needs on the ground as well
as provide a space to consider future ways
of working with each other.
2. ECOSOC Accreditation: You win some, you lose some - let’s make the best of it!
The purpose of the meeting was to explore a range of topic areas related to ECOSOC
status: how the accreditation process works and the politics of it (thus leading to both
success and deferral of like-minded groups in the same session), how groups have used
the status once they have it, and what we can do to more effectively support our civil
society partners who want to engage with UN mechanisms.
Participants heard from NGOs who had applied for ECOSOC status, and the strategies they
engaged in to get ECOSOC status. There was robust discussion on whether it should be
a continued priority for NGOs to seek ECOSOC status, with a firm sense that it would be
good for more LGBTI organizations from the global South to have such status at the UN.
3. A training on the rights of LGBTI Persons under International and Regional Law
The purpose of this training was to give an introduction to international human rights law
to activists who were keen to use that system to support their advocacy.
The training took the form of mini-lectures on various aspects of how international law is
formed, its influence and how it can be used to support change at the local level.
Participants were encouraged to ask clarificatory questions as the training progressed
and the session concluded with a round-table discussion on possible new avenues for
future engagement with the UN system, including strategic complaints brought to
various UN human rights treaty bodies.
4. More than the UPR: Ways to use the UN System
The purpose of the meeting was to train participants on some of the key UN human
rights tools that are available to SOGI and intersex activists. Building on the pre-identified
knowledge that participants at this workshop already had on the UPR system, the session
focused in particular on the use of other tools: principally the UN Treaty Bodies and the
Special Procedures.

Regional Offices
ILGA ASIA
The ILGA-Asia board approved the decision to open an office in Hong Kong. In April 2014
the ILGA-Asia office registered with the Hong Kong authorities at: ‘The loft’, Block A, 4/F,
Lee King Industrial Building, 12 Ng Fong Street, Hong Kong. In March 2015 ILGA-Asia
hired an Office Coordinator, Sattara Hattirat and both the Regional Board and the Office
Coordinator are now concentrated in the organisation of the 6th ILGA-Asia Regional
Conference to take place in Taipei, Taiwan in October 2015.
ILGA LAC
The ILGA LAC regional office was opened in December 2013 in Buenos Aires, Argentina
in Agenda Cordoba 4123. Currently ILGA LAC has three staff members working in
Buenos Aires: Pedro Paradiso Sottile, Executive Director, Paul Caballero, Project Officer
and Leandro Fogliatti, Communication Officer. The ILGA LAC staff publishes a newsletter
every fortnight, took care of the communication in Spanish in relation to the ILGA World
Conference in Mexico City, and co-organised the ILGA LAC Conference in Cuba in May
2014.
27
ILGA LAC met several government officials of Mercosur and Unasur to ensure that LGBTI
equality issues stay on the agenda of said governments. The National Institute Against
Discrimination and Racism of Argentina (INADI) signed a partnership on projects with
ILGA LAC that will come into force once the organisation will be legally registered in the
country.
Project proposals prepared by ILGA LAC include:
* A Digital Platform to integrate via web a set of online services for member organizations
of ILGA LAC.
* A Country Situation Report to picture the situation of inclusion of LGBTI rights in the
region. An annual online publication summarizing the principal facts recorded in the
region.
* A Report on Access to Justice, covering a survey of the jurisprudence on LGBTI rights
in the region and organising legal data in Latin America and the Caribbean to get an
overview of LGBTI related jurisprudence throughout the region.
* An Inclusion Index (a pilot project with the World Bank), to measure the level of access
of the LGBTI community to state services in areas such as education, employment,
health and housing arose (In December, the Executive Director traveled to Washington
and participated in a meeting with representatives of the Bank, a representative of the
LGBTI Rapporteur of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and the World
Bank. A new meeting was scheduled in August 2015 to advance different working
methodologies that allow the execution of a formal long-term project).
ILGA LAC and ILGA North America initiated talks to formalise cooperation vis-à-vis
advocacy at the Organisation of the American States.
PAN AFRICA ILGA - PAI
The Pan Africa ILGA - PAI office was opened in July 2014 and is located on the 1st Floor,
Dunked Work Centre, #281 Cnr Bompas & Jan Smurs Avenue, Dunkeld, Johannesburg,
South Africa. Lame Charmaine Olebile (Botswana) was hired to manage the regional
office, initiate the process of registration of PAI with the South African authorities and
work with the regional Board to plan the strategic planning process. The regional board
then met in Johannesburg – thanks to funding provided by the Open Society Institute in
South Africa (OSISA) – at the end of January 2015 to develop the 3-year strategic plan
and agree on the accompanying monitoring and evaluation (M&E) framework. To provide
support and situational analysis of existing LGBTI organizing in Africa PAI invited partner
networks such as the Coalition of African Lesbians (CAL), African Men for Sexual Health
and Rights (AmSHER), Global Interfaith Networks (GIN) and AIDS and Rights Alliance in
Southern Africa (ARASA).

Rights Maps
May 30 saw the publication of ILGA’s 2014 State–Sponsored Homophobia Report and
Gay and Lesbian Rights Maps in the framework of a panel on International Human Rights
Law and Sexual Orientation at the UN in Geneva, and in the presence of H.E. the UN
High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay, ILGA’s Co-Secretary General Gloria
Careaga Pérez as well as representatives of various UN diplomatic missions and human
rights defenders from around the world.
The 2014 report was edited by Lucas Paoli Itaborahy and Jingshu Zhu, with the
introduction provided by Aengus Carroll who also joined the editors in reviewing and
supplementing the final version of the report.
The report also featured regional introductions by ILGA Board Members, researchers,
writers, and activists.
ILGA AWARDS THE UN HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS
During the ceremony for the release of ILGA’s
State-Sponsored Homophobia Report, ILGA
Co-Secretary General Gloria Careaga Pérez,
on behalf of the whole ILGA Executive Board,
awarded the UN High Commissioner Navi
Pillay the honor of “LGBTI Friend of the Year
2014” in light of her own very personal,
heartfelt, and sincere, gamechanging role –
and supported by her exceptionally competent
and motivated team at the OHCHR – in
the promotion of equality for LGBTI people
worldwide.
