Worried by the increasing of the conservative discourse against LGBTIQ people in the world, especially when it comes to people seeking to escape violence in their own countries due to their sexual orientation, gender, gender identity,gender expression and sexual characteristics ! https://t.co/H31L33LVwn

Re Thanks to @Refugees for the fruitful meeting and your commitment to not lay down arms against the anti gender movement ! human rights matters and members of the @UN must respect our universal value by recognizing the status of refugee for LGBTIQ people at risk in their country https://t.co/7Bdjj5LWn6

The @UN is an important actor in regions in conflict. Keep keeping an LGBTIQ agenda is crucial when proceeding for peace operations in these regions. Thanks to @EUatUN for having organized such an important meeting with Under-secretary-general Lacroix for #peaceoperations https://t.co/g0IcNYfHiE
