Position paper
Homelessness among LGBTIQ+ people in Europe should be tackled urgently
17th of May - IDAHOBIT
The 17th of May marks the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT). This date is an occasion to celebrate LGBTIQ+ diverse identities, but also to raise awareness about LGBTIQ+ rights and denounce ongoing violations and discrimination. It is important to remind ourselves that it was only on May 17th 1990 that homosexuality was removed from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organization (WHO), which is why the annual marking of IDAHOBIT takes place on this day.
