The International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHO) is celebrated every year on 17th May. It is coordinated by the Paris-based IDAHO Committee founded and presided over by the French academic and gay rights activist Louis-Georges Tin. 17th May was chosen as the day for the event because it marks the date in 1992 that homosexuality was removed from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organization. IDAHO is celebrated in more than 50 countries around the world. Cambodias Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community and its supporters will come together to celebrate IDAHO as part of Cambodian Pride Week 2010.
