Улмаар 2004 онд Нэгдсэн Үндэстний Байгууллага-аас энэхүү өдрийг хүний эрхийн тэмдэглэлт өдөр болгон хүлээн зөвшөөрч\, дэлхий даяар тэмдэглэдэг болсон юм.\nМонгол Улсад 2011 оноос эхлэн АЙДАХОБИТ-ыг тэмдэглэж ирсэн бөгөөд энэ хүрээнд олон нийтэд бэлгийн чиг баримжаа\, хүйсийн баримжаа\, илэрхийллийн талаар шинжлэх ухаанд суурилсан үнэн бодит мэдээлэл түгээх\, хүний эрхийг хүндэтгэх соёлыг төлөвшүүлэхэд чиглэсэн олон талт үйл ажиллагааг зохион байгуулж байна.\nТус үзэсгэлэн нь орчин үеийн гэрэл зургийн олон төрөл\, жанрыг хамарч\, ЛГБТИК+ хүмүүсийн амьдрал\, туршлага\, дуу хоолойг урлагаар илэрхийлсэн бүтээлүүдийг олон нийтэд хүргэх болно.

This year\, the day is being observed worldwide under the slogan ‘In the Heart of Democracy.’\nTo mark this day\, as part of the LGBT Centre’s ‘Art for Rights’ initiative\, a photography exhibition will be held at Hөх Нар Сав Space from 15 to 28 May 2026. The exhibition opening will take place on 15 May 2026 at 18:00. \nThe ‘Art for Rights’ initiative aims to promote the understanding of human rights through art\, support artists on LGBTQI+ themes\, and create a space for queer artists. Art is a powerful tool that not only critiques social\, political and cultural realities but also calls for positive change and spreads love and pride.\nTo cite the history of AIDAHOBIT Day\, on 17 May 1990 —when the World Health Organisation officially removed same-sex orientation from its list of mental disorders—was a particularly significant event for the LGBTQI+ movement. Subsequently\, in 2004 the United Nations recognised this day as a human rights day\, and it has been celebrated worldwide.\nIn Mongolia\, IDAHOBIT has been celebrated since 2011\, and within this framework\, science-based\, factual information about sexual orientation\, gender identity and expression is disseminated to the public\, organising multifaceted activities aimed at fostering a culture of respect for human rights.\nThe exhibition will encompass various forms and genres of contemporary photography\, bringing to the public works that express the lives\, experiences\, and voices of LGBTQI+ people through art. Of the more than 80 works submitted\, 65 have been selected to be exhibited\, and will also be featured in Pride magazine and the exhibition catalogue.\nThis exhibition will be a significant event\, uniting the values of art\, human rights and democracy\, and fostering understanding\, empathy and mutual respect among the public. \nExhibition hours: 15th–28th May\, 11:00–19:00. Admission free.\nExhibition opening: 15th May\nWhere: SAV Art GalleryFrom 18:00

SUMMARY:Exhibition "Queer"
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition on homosexuality and trans* identity aims to break down barriers and raise awareness. Twelve roll-up displays provide visitors with information on the history of homosexuality: Until when were homosexual acts criminalized in Germany? What do the colors of the rainbow flag represent? What do penguins have to do with homosexuality? A wealth of interesting\, sad\, but also humorous information has been visualized in an entertaining way. The exhibition makes it clear that history is not a linear progression. Its images depict a constant ebb and flow—and serve as a reminder that today’s status quo cannot be taken for granted.\nTuesday\, May 19 2026 – Wednesday\, June 03 2026\nTime: daily from 8:00 am to 6 pm\nTo mark the start of the exhibition\, the Catholic University Community KHG Saarbrücken and the Diversity Office are hosting an opening event on May 19\, from 4 to 6 pm\nProgram:\nMusical opening: Matthis Löw Harfe\nWelcome with a short talk on the topic “Queer and the Catholic Church”: Katrin Altmaier\, KHG Saarbrücken\nShort presentation on “IDAHOBITA”: Tamara Wagner\, Diversity Office\nMusical interlude\nReception: exploring the exhibition together while interacting
