OutRight Action International

OutRight Action International, a non-profit based in New York, works to advance human rights for LGBTQ+ people globally. It's a UN-accredited group, meaning they're in the room where it happens, pushing to end discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression worldwide. They've got a genuinely international perspective, with staff and offices not just in New York, but also in South Africa and the Philippines. That reach matters when you're talking about human rights. If you're in New York and want to see how this work gets done, their Lower Manhattan office is at 80 Maiden Lane, Suite 1505. They're accessible to visitors who are genuinely interested in what they do. You can always check their website for more on their programs, or if you're looking to support them. It's a real way to connect with LGBTQ+ advocacy and human rights during your trip.
