The International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association (ILGA[2]) is a LGBTQ+ rights organization.
It participates in a multitude of agendas within the United Nations, such as creating visibility for LGBTQ+ issues by conducting advocacy and outreach at the Human Rights Council, working with members to help their government improve LGBTI rights, ensuring LGBTI members are not forgotten in international law, and advocating for LBTI women's issues at the Commission on the Status of Women.
