May 17 is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia, and Transphobia, also known as IDAHOBIT. Celebrated around the world, this date was chosen to commemorate the World Health Organization’s (WHO) decision on May 17, 1990, to no longer consider homosexuality as a mental illness.
To mark the occasion, the Office for Equality (VPH-WINC) invites you to visit the exhibition “LGBTIQphobic Discrimination Around the World, in Europe, and in Switzerland” on the flat space in front of the library at the Rolex Learning Center, from 13 May 2026.
This exhibition highlights the meanings of the letters in the LGBTQIA+ acronym, as well as content documenting the state of LGBTIQphobic discrimination on a global, European, and Swiss scale. The exhibition incorporates scientific data from various research institutions, such as the NGO ILGA and Unisanté. Visitors will have the opportunity to reflect and engage through interactive elements while discovering or deepening their knowledge on the subject.
