LGBT advocates face a hulking, well-funded force that fights with religious fervor. But by most tallies, they're winning.
This June the U.N. Human Rights Council narrowly passed its first-ever resolution calling for universal gay rights, with the support of more than 80 countries. It was an historic milestone, a global recognition that gay rights and human rights were finally synonymous, at least on paper here in New York at the world body.
How these rights play out in the real world is a very different story, and it is the subject of this GlobalPost "Special Report," which will examine the rights of people who are gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) through a series of reports over the next two months from every corner of the world.
