The UK is a proud supporter of @CWEquality’s work to ensure all benefit from the Commonwealth Charter.

At #CHOGM2024, I reaffirmed the UK’s commitment to supporting grassroots LGBT+ human rights defenders tackling violence & discrimination that persists today.

“Inclusivity is not optional, it’s imperative.”

As the #CHOGM2024 People’s Forum kicks off, the Prime Minister for Samoa is unequivocal.

Against many global challenges - climate, health, & freedom of expression - ALL people must be included.

Special Rapporteurs & the #IESOGI 🇺🇳🏳️‍🌈 call for scrapping #Georgia’s newly voted law on 'family values and the protection of minors,' as it may instigate hate speech, violence, stigma, intolerance, discrimination and misinformation.

An unfortunate reminder why protections against discrimination based on gender identity and expression are important for everyone.

No one should have to experience this.
