INTERNATIONAL DAY AGAINST HOMOPHOBIA, TRANSPHOBIA, AND BIPHOBIA |
| On 17 May, IGLTA celebrated “Our Bodies, Our Lives, Our Rights,” the theme for this year’s International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia. We proudly stand for each individual’s right to live their sexuality and express their gender(s) freely, and demand an end to so-called conversion therapies and the forced sterilization of trans and intersex people. French activist Louis-Georges Tin founded the International Day Against Homophobia in 2004, with “Transphobia” being added in 2009 and “Biphobia” in 2015. The day is now marked in more than 130 countries, including 37 where same-sex acts are illegal.

LGBTQ+ TRAVEL GUIDE TO BELGIUM |
| Belgium has much to offer LGBTQ+ travelers of all interests, from foodies to culture connoisseurs to nature lovers, and it plays host to numerous LGBTQ+ focused events and festivals throughout the year. Consistently ranked as one of the world's most welcoming countries for LGBTQ+ travelers, Belgium was also the second country to adopt marriage equality, in 2003. The former Prime Minister of Belgium, Elio Di Rupo, was even the first openly gay man to serve as a national head of state in modern times.
