LGBT rights at the United Nations
Since its founding in 1945 , the United Nations political bodies had not discussed LGBT rights ( regarding equality regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity ) until 1994 through the favorable resolution of the Toonen v . Australia case by the UN Human Rights Committee , which dictated that the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights states that laws against homosexuality are a violation of human rights .
