What is ILGA?

International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association (ILGA) works for promotion of human rights worldwide. By 2012, ILGA member organizations approximated to 1000. The conference will be hosted by RFSL, the Swedish Federation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Rights, which will be attended by participants of more than 100 countries.

ILGA has gained consultative status for the UN since the World Conference in Sao Paulo in 2010. A high-level panel on violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity was held at the Human Rights Council in March this year.
