IDAHOBIT Day

IDAHOBIT Day is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia & Transphobia.

Today at Staughton, we celebrated this day with the Wellbeing Team and Year 9 YEP class holding events. Students enjoyed music, food, and many pledged to stand by their LGBTIQA+ mates.

Why May 17th?

31 years ago - on May 17, 1990 - the World Health Organization removed homosexuality from the Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems.

International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia & Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) celebrates LGBTQIA+ people globally, and raises awareness for the work still needed to combat discrimination.
