Resumo

The paper analyzes the work of the United Nations (UN) LGBTI Core Group in legitimating and mainstreaming the human rights of LGBTQIA+ persons across the UN and in the Security Council (UNSC) agenda and mandate. By using an agenda-setting model for promoting interpretative frameworks, the paper reconstitutes the LGBTQIA+ human rights trajectory at the UN and identifies the recent Core Group efforts to bridge the gap between LGBTQIA+ human rights and international peace and security at the Council. The paper identifies the UNSC’s unique characteristics, such as the veto power, as constraints, but highlights political alignments for future advancements.
