The UN Human Rights Council has passed a historic resolution calling for universal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people.
This is the first time the body has passed a resolution which focuses specifically on sexual orientation and gender identity.
The resolution, which passed 23-19 with three abstentions, “affirms that all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights and that everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms … without distinction of any kind”.
