Discusses the ongoing denial of human rights to lesbian, gay, bisexual, & transgender people around the world, which has implications for their health. While the United Nations offer some support for LGBT human rights, it is not a perfect forum for claiming those rights because of the threat of opposition from various sectors, including the Vatican &, recently, the US.

A discussion of lesbian, gay, bisexual, & transgender (LGBT) rights as human rights examines articles of the International Convention on Civil & Political Rights that indicate all groups should be protected against discrimination. LGBT rights were most likely not intended to be included when human rights were first established since LGBT behavior was considered criminal at the time. Changes in thinking about LGBT rights are illustrated through rulings in various cases that came before European & American courts. Attention is given to the importance of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women that was ratified by most of the world's countries with the notable exception of the US. The wide range of religious attitudes towards LGBT rights & human rights includes acceptance of LGGBT rights as part of general human rights; support of human rights but not LGBT rights, & a refusal to accept human rights as relevant. The challenge to international rights posed by cultural relativism & religious extremism is discussed. References. J. Lindroth

The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has allowed countries to bring their response to HIV/AIDS to an unprecedented scale, resulting in innovative projects that reach otherwise underserved communities with HIV prevention, treatment, and care. But in regions and countries where sex workers, men who have sex with men, or lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons are criminalized or stigmatized, organizations that are led by or work with these groups face challenges participating in Global Fund processes and accessing funding. This article explores the potential of the Global Fund to create space for the participation of these groups in decision-making and to increase their access to resources; examines barriers that hinder their participation; and proposes measures to overcome them.
