On March 1, PBI-Honduras tweeted: “PBI accompanies @arcoirisghn [the LGTB Association of Honduras] during a day of training workshops. On the Day of the #cerodiscriminacion [zero discrimination] we remember the important work of the organization in the defense and promotion of the human rights of sexual diversity.”
UNAIDS explains: “On Zero Discrimination Day, 1 March, we celebrate the right of everyone to live a full and productive life—and live it with dignity.”
“Zero Discrimination Day highlights how people can become informed about and promote inclusion, compassion, peace and, above all, a movement for change. Zero Discrimination Day is helping to create a global movement of solidarity to end all forms of discrimination.”
It adds: “On Zero Discrimination Day this year, under the theme ‘Remove laws that harm, create laws that empower’, UNAIDS is highlighting the urgent need to take action against discriminatory laws.”
PBI-Honduras has accompanied Arcoíris, the LGTB Association of Honduras since July 2015.
