Diversity in humanity, humanity in diversity 2017, para. 36
- Paragraph text
- What are some of the root causes? While more empirical research is needed on the issue, behind the violence and discrimination there is an environment of negative elements: multiple factors, with longitudinal and intergenerational implications. From the health angle, the message from the following citation rings true: Violence against people from key populations has been shown to be a risk factor for HIV acquisition. Such violence is common. It can take various forms — physical, sexual or psychological. Violence is fuelled by the imbalance in the power dynamics of gender and by prejudice and discrimination against persons perceived to depart from conventional gender and sexuality norms and identities. Also, multiple structural factors influence vulnerability to violence, including discriminatory or harsh laws and policing practices and cultural and social norms that legitimate stigma and discrimination. Homophobic violence, too, is increasing in some countries, as more policies and laws have banned same-sex activity and made it a criminal offence. This is likely to increase HIV risk.

- Paragraph text
- UNDP has a large number of programmes worldwide on lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex issues, and the outreach is both to the pillars of the State (the executive, legislative and judicial branches) and to pillars of the community, such as national human rights institutions, non-governmental organizations and human rights defenders, including platforms for dialogue with local governments. Pursuant to the Sustainable Development Goals, UNDP is working on a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex inclusion index to help generate more data, which will also contribute to policy formulation and programming. Some of the activities are on strengthening HIV responses for men who have sex with men and transgender people, and access to health care, while others are more directly on the legal and social environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons and civil society in a number of countries.

- The report allows the approach and methodology of the Independent Expert to be gauged. There are key reflections responding to the mandate, particularly regarding (a) the panorama of the situation, including the implementation of international instruments, with identification of good practices and gaps; (b) awareness of the violence and discrimination issue, and linkage with root causes; (c) dialogue, consultation and cooperation with States and other stakeholders; (d) the identification of multiple, intersecting and aggravated forms of violence and discrimination; and (e) support for international cooperation and related services to assist national efforts.

- Paragraph text
- The role of the United Nations, including the Human Rights Council and the General Assembly, is pivotal in order to raise the issue of violence and discrimination and to address it through comprehensive and holistic measures, with due regard for the recommendations of the Independent Expert as an impetus for follow-up action. United Nations human rights presences are important and need to be bolstered in countries and regions where there are major gaps in human rights protection; this is certainly also the case in regard to sexual orientation and gender identity. This should be complemented by the catalytic role of United Nations country teams and inter-agency cooperation to integrate sexual orientation and gender identity issues into programming and practices on the basis of no “protection deficit” and no “protection vacuum”.

- In their submissions to the Independent Expert, civil society organizations have also highlighted important advances and remaining challenges. A non-governmental organization submitting information on China noted that the old “hooligan crime”, which had had an impact on same-sex relations between men, had now been reformed, while gender identities were not criminalized in the country. There remained issues of implementation, for example, in the employment sector, particularly in relation to transgender persons.

- [The Independent Expert underlines the key role of civil society and human rights defenders and the need for more effective action to counter threats and reprisals against them. Of note is a submission to the Human Rights Council by a number of non-governmental organizations earlier this year, in which they called upon States, inter alia:] To ensure the protection of human rights defenders working on issues of sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sex characteristics, against any violence, threat, retaliation, de facto or de jure discrimination, pressure or any other arbitrary action perpetrated by the State or non-State actors, in response to their human rights activities;

- Paragraph text
- The gaps are, however, omnipresent, despite a global trend towards decriminalization of consensual same-sex relationships. More than 70 countries still criminalize same-sex relations, with particular impact on gay and bisexual men and other men who have sex with men. Of those, at least 40 countries criminalize same-sex relations between lesbian and bisexual women and other women who have sex with women. The death penalty may be applied in a number of countries in the African and Asian regions. More particularly, the death penalty is imposed throughout the territory of four countries and in certain provinces of two others, and in two States the death penalty is carried out by non-State actors. In five other States the death penalty could technically be imposed but it is not invoked.

- On another front, there may also be a need for some criminal laws to tackle violence and discrimination, for example in regard to hate crimes and incitement to hatred, and they should reflect international standards. The situation varies from countries that criminalize same-sex relations to those that do not. There is a need for protection against incitement to hatred in all countries, including in those where same-sex relations are not criminalized. The Independent Expert hopes to explore the broader interface between criminal law, related laws and sexual orientation and gender identity in a future report.

- Paragraph text
- The National Human Rights Commission of Mexico indicated that hate crimes related to sexual orientation and gender identity are considered aggravating circumstances which can give rise to more severe penalties. Issues relating to sexual orientation and gender identity might also be covered by its law on violence against women. The country also has various protocols to help guide the authorities on how to deal with sexual orientation and gender identity situations in an empathetic manner, such as the protocol for judicial operators, including judges and prosecutors, issued by the Supreme Court on this topic;

- In regard to the second underpinning, anti-discrimination laws and policies can appear in various forms: sometimes general, sometimes specific. Even with a law, there is a need to ensure effective practical implementation, which is correlated with the need for a holistic approach, interlinking laws and policies with responsive programming, case enforcement in the courts (coupled with strategic advocacy and litigation), effective and accessible mechanisms for human rights protection, resource allocation, information and data generation, education and capacity-building, accountability and redress, and space for networking, mobilization and participation for reform.

- Other regional human rights instruments offer opportunities for advocacy against violence and discrimination. For instance, it is stated in the Arab Charter on Human Rights, of 2004, in its article 3, that: Each State party to the present Charter undertakes to ensure to all individuals subject to its jurisdiction the right to enjoy the rights and freedoms set forth herein, without distinction on grounds of race, colour, sex, language, religious belief, opinion, thought, national or social origin, wealth, birth or physical or mental disability.

States are urged to follow up the various recommendations under the universal periodic review and from the United Nations treaty bodies and special procedures effectively to ensure improved protection from violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity;

- Also important is the context-specific nature of each country and situation. The situation is not necessarily the same for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (and intersex) persons across the board, even though human rights are inherent to all persons without distinction: the situation is not homogeneous but heterogeneous. For instance, in one country, same-sex relationships are criminalized, with the threat of the death penalty. This is primarily targeted at homosexuals. However, in that same country, those who self-identify as transgender are assisted and recognized by the State (to undergo reassignment surgery). The lack of awareness or understanding or knowledge, and the biases and stereotypes, vary between countries and within each country — depending on diverse factors such as geography (urban vs. rural), demography (e.g. different educational and economic levels), and cultural affinity.

- Paragraph text
- Other provisions (e.g. article 7 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and article 26 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights) reaffirm the right to equality before the law and equal protection of the law without discrimination. The stricture against discrimination was deliberated upon by the Human Rights Committee in regard to a seminal case, Toonen v. Australia, that concerned the presence of a local law that prohibited same-sex relations. The Committee found that the local law in question violated article 17 of the Covenant in regard to the right to privacy, and that the reference to “sex” in article 2 (1) (as well as in art. 26) covered sexual orientation.
