Embrace diversity and energize humanity 2017, para. 12
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- Sixth, there is the welcome development that sexual orientation and gender identity is now an integral part of the United Nations agenda; the issue is legitimized and synchronized for global action. While there is always room for a plurality of views, the commitment to combat violence and discrimination is universal and ineluctable. It is enhanced by the all-embracing pledge that no one will be left behind, set out in the preamble to resolution 70/1, entitled “Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”, adopted by the General Assembly on 25 September 2015.
