520 _aIn this report presented to the Human Rights Council on 24 June 2019, Victor Madrigal-Borloz (the Independent Expert) urged States to collect data in an effort to understand the root causes to and eliminate violence and discrimination against LGBT people. "States must adequately address this scourge through public policy, access to justice, law reform or administrative actions," said Madrigal-Borloz. In most contexts policymakers are taking decisions in the dark, left only with personal preconceptions and prejudices. "My findings show that barriers created by criminalization, pathologization, demonization and stigmatization hinder accurate estimates regarding the world population affected by violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and/or gender identity. Maintaining such a level of ignorance without seeking appropriate evidence is tantamount to criminal negligence." (From the media release). Record #6331
