NEW YORK, May 16, 2008 – The UK Home Office, together with the presidents of Poland and Uganda, are making prejudicial policies and public statements that deny people's dignity and endanger their lives, Human Rights Watch said here today in its annual "Hall of Shame" to mark the International Day Against Homophobia.
On May 17, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) groups in dozens of countries will commemorate the International Day Against Homophobia, an initiative launched in 2005 that commemorates the day in 1990 when the World Health Organization removed homosexuality from its roster of disorders.
