· The UN Independent Expert on Protection against Violence and Discrimination on the basis of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity is gathering information from states and civil society on how the protection of freedom of religion or belief affects the freedom of "sexual orientation" and "gender identity."
·The information gathered will be used to compile a report to be presented at the 53rd session of the UN Human Rights Council in June 2023.
The Office of the President of the Republic of Poland has responded to an appeal by Ordo Iuris, in which the Institute points out that the UN General Assembly resolution on violence against women could be a tool to pressure states to position the so-called right to abortion as a human right. Before and after the document's adoption, the Institute issued appeals to the President highlighting the dangers of the resolution and calling for opposition to the UN's imposed interpretation of human rights.
The UN General Assembly's Third Committee has adopted a draft resolution on preventing violence against women, stating that "access to safe abortion" is to be part of "the human rights of all women." There is no doubt that a powerful lobby at the UN is pushing for the comprehensive inclusion of abortion in the human rights system - against the majority of countries in the world! Characteristically, abortion is combined with extreme ideology in the draft. In just 14 pages of the resolution, the word "gender" appears as many as 80 times.
