PHOTOS
The celebrations for our 40th anniversary will culminate in March 2019 at the next ILGA World Conference in Aotearoa / New Zealand. This will also be the place where we will organise a photo exhibition, telling the history of our first 40 years and of all the people who made it possible. Gather your community together, show your pride and provide countless people around the world with inspiration and hope for their future!
Videos and photos will be published on the ILGA website page dedicated to our 40th anniversary and on our social media channels. Photos will also be included in a photo exhibition that we are planning to host during the 2019 ILGA World Conference in Aotearoa / New Zealand.

40 for the 40th
ILGA is calling all LGBTI people and their allies to help ILGA keep on fighting for equal rights. On the 40th anniversary of ILGA, we open our first giving campaign to support our work:
Providing vital training on advocacy, security and other skills to human rights defenders around the globe
Providing funding to LGBTI activists and human rights defenders to advocate for LGBTI rights at the United Nations
Gathering LGBTI activists and leaders at World and Regional conferences through scholarship programs
Producing landmark publications and tools, including the State-Sponsored Homophobia report, that assist LGBTI organisations around the world to improve the quality of life for LGBTI people
We would not be able to do this important work without the financial support of donors like you.
ILGA is calling you to action by participating in our 40th anniversary campaign. You can participate by committing to donate €40EUR or more per month for a period of 1 year in celebration of the 40th anniversary. Your donation enables LGBTI activists to keep on fighting for equality. The results of their advocacy is change.
