Constructive dialogue with civil society organizations leads to trust-building on both sides, which is an essential pillar of information and data sharing in cases of violence and abuse.

Our goal as Parliamentarians is to insist that Parliament formulates legislation in accordance with international law and obligations that our States have signed and ratified.

Enact comprehensive laws that specifically prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity and sex characteristics.

Promote equality and non-discrimination and advocate for action on issues of concern and urgency for LGBTI people in the community and with constituents.

Ensure that national budgets allocate adequate resources to programmes and policies that address the needs of LGBTI people in all their diversity.

Promote dialogue and tolerance, including sensitization campaigns, among fellow parliamentarians to address discrimination and exclusion on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity.
