GENEVA (12 May 2016) – To celebrate the International Day against Homophobia & Transphobia on 17 May 2016, United Nations Free & Equal asked #LGBT activists and allies around the world what they are fighting for in their own countries and communities. The video captures some of the strength and spirit that LGBT activists and allies bring to their work, and the sheer diversity of causes that help make up the movement globally. The result is a celebration of activism - and a reminder of why we fight. Watch the video, "Why We Fight", in English.
