Breaking the Silence for all those who have to hide or face hardship because of who they are.

May 17 is the International Day Against all LGBTIQ phobias. On this day and every other day, IOM stands with all LGBTIQ+ individuals around the world, including migrants, and is committed to ending the abuse and discrimination they face.

Watch IOM Director General’s message on IDAHOBIT.

The hashtag for this day is #IDAHOBIT and the accronym comes from International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism and Transphobia.
