On July 17, a set of rules laying out how populations with a higher risk of suffering attacks against them can access specialized justice was signed among several countries of Latin America. Titled “ Reglas de Brasilia sobre Acceso a la Justicia de Personas Condicion de Vulnerabilidad”—the document asks that signees to consider rights of vulnerable populations.

Public Opinion of Transgender Rights in Peru
Introduction
This report presents information on public notion about transgender people and their rights in Peru. We analyzed data from The Global Attitudes Toward Transgender People survey, Peru panel, to provide modern information on views toward transgender people, their rights, and their status in society.

Although the most recent National Human Rights Plan (), used by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights as guidance for public policy, recognizes the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and intersex (LGBTI) population as a vulnerable group,Peru lacks policies that remember transgender and other gender minority people, and no law protects people against discrimination based on their gender identity (or sexual orientation). Likewise, hate crime laws in Peru undertake not recognize crimes directed at transgender people on the basis of gender identity.

Since , Peru has had a law explicitly banning discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, but violence and discrimination against LGBTIQ people remain, and cases of hate crimes often go unpunished. In April , the Inter-American Court of Human Rights upheld a gay man’s rights to judicial protection and legal equality after he was subjected to discrimination at a business establishment. In , the Ministry of Health unexpectedly issued a decree classifying being transgender as a mental health disorder, a move that sparked widespread criticism from LGBTIQ activists and human rights organizations. Activists have legally challenged the decree, and a judicial decision is pending. Pride marches hav
