Embrace diversity and energize humanity 2017, para. 9
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Third, the mandate recognizes that the issue of sexual orientation and gender identity interplays with a variety of pillars of power at the national and international levels. For instance, there may be a healthy range of opinions at the national level in many countries, with the judiciary or parliamentary pillar being more progressive than the executive branch or vice versa, offering the possibility of reform in regard to those national measures that are not in conformity with international standards. The diversity of pillars will be further illustrated below (see table, sect. VI). There is also a call for more space for a strong civil society, national human rights institutions and human rights defenders. In fact, the need for effective checks and balances to prevent abuse of power and to ensure compliance with international human rights law invites a diversity of processes and mechanisms respectful of international law.
