It aims to coordinate international events that raise awareness of LGBT rights violations and stimulate interest in LGBT rights work worldwide.
This date was chosen to commemorate the decision to remove homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1990.
The day, as a concept, was conceived in 2004.
A year-long campaign culminated in the first International Day Against Homophobia on May 17, 2005.
