The UK and Argentina work together closely on LGBT+ rights. As co-chairs of the Equal Rights Coalition - an intergovernmental body consisting of 42 member states, multilateral organisations, and around 120 civil society organisations - the UK and Argentina lead global action on this issue.
Throughout 2022, Lord Herbert is visiting countries in every corner of the world to drum up support for LGBT+ rights and galvanise ambitious action ahead of this June’s Safe To Be Me Conference. The UK will work with countries on their own path to equality, offering support to create the conditions for greater freedoms and equality.
This week, Lord Herbert met with Cecilia Meirovich, Director of Human Rights at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Alba Rueda, Subsecretary of Diversity Policies at the Ministry of Women, Genders and Diversity.
Lord Herbert hosted 80 guests from civil society and the LGBT+ community at the British Embassy in Buenos Aires to launch QUIR – an application designed by civil society organisation Kidz that provides information on LGBT+-friendly local services. According to their creators, QUIR was born out of the need to find a safe space where LGBT+ consumers can access accommodation, cultural and recreational activities, personal care, health professionals, gastronomy, bars, nightlife, spas and other leisure that guarantee a hate-free experience.
