Pride TT has issued a strong call to action in solidarity with the global LGBTQIA+ community as it commemorates International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) under the 2025 theme, “The Power of Communities.”

In a statement on May 17, Pride TT underscored the resilience of LGBTQIA+ individuals in the face of systemic neglect and growing violence. The organisation pointed to recent attacks on gay men lured through dating apps without arrests. The group called on the authorities to take meaningful action.

“This pattern of violence and inaction is unacceptable. It sends a chilling message to LGBTQIA+ people that their lives are not a priority and that justice is out of reach.
