ILGA World launches its 2023 annual report
Summary
We are honoured to share the ILGA World 2023 Annual Report with you, where you will find a summary of a year of remarkable achievements in our work for LGBTI communities worldwide.
At a time of global pushback, no human rights movement can make it by itself. In 2023, and in years to come, ILGA World built and will build on long-standing movement relationships, while we continue to facilitate access to information, convening spaces, and advocacy opportunities for LGBTI communities on the ground.

“In 2023, each step towards progress was met with harsh pushback, and every day we were reminded that change has to be fought for and cannot ever be taken for granted. And yet, despite the prejudice and discrimination we still face, people of diverse sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, and sex characteristics have always been part of every society — each of us a thread in the magnificent tapestry of our shared humanity. Our courage lights the way towards a more inclusive and respectful world for everyone.”
Luz Elena Aranda and Tuisina Ymania Brown, ILGA World co-Secretaries General
“2023 has been a truly transformative year for ILGA World: not only have we expanded the scope of our research to equally encompass sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sex characteristics issues, but we opened new grounds for our community to access information and advocacy spaces. (…) Throughout the year, our global family got stronger than ever.”
Julia Ehrt, ILGA World Executive Director
ILGA World is grateful for the support of its member organisations, staff, consultants and Board and Committee members who work tirelessly to make everything we do possible.
A heartfelt shout-out and thank you goes to all the human rights defenders around the world for the time and energy they commit to advancing equality, equity, recognition and protection for persons with diverse sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, and sex characteristics everywhere.
