Earlier this month UN General Secretary Ban Ki Moon told delegates of a Human Rights Council meeting that the time has come to end violence and discrimination against LGBT people around the world.
All Out, who campaign around the world for LGBT freedoms have made a remix video of the speech.
Moon said "We see a pattern of violence and discrimination directed at people just because they are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. People have been imprisoned, tortured, even killed."

A piece of concrete was thrown at a Metropolitan Line train from a bridge in north-west London, police said.
The fist-sized piece was thrown at the Tube train on 29 February from Highfield Road Bridge as the driver was pulling into Northwood station.
The concrete piece dented the front of the train, but no-one was injured, the British Transport Police (BTP) said.
BTP officers are also investigating the theft of railway cable on Jubilee Line from Queensbury early on Monday.
Last weekend on the Jubilee Line a drivers quick actions saved the life of a young child. Just as the driver was about to leave the platform at Finchley Road, he spotted a small hand coming up from the track on his CCTV and realised that someone had fallen from the platform.
Had it been a driverless train, then it would have departed as all the sytems indications were that it was safe to do so, and this story of heroism would be one of tragedy.
