From its office in New York City, IGLHRC works extensively at the United Nations, helping Member States and UN institutions recognize that human rights standards apply to everyone, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. We also work with regional mechanisms, such as the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights.
