History
In 2018, the Aliança Nacional LGBTI and the Rede GayLatino, with support from UNAIDS Brazil, launched the LGBTI+ Communication Manual. The launch took place in the Federal Senate, during a public hearing of the Human Rights Commission, on the eve of the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia.[16][17]
In November 2019, the Aliança Nacional LGBTI, in partnership with other entities, held the International LGBTI+ Congress at the Federal University of Paraná in Rebouças.[18][19][20]
In 2022, the Aliança Nacional LGBTI joined the National Coalizão Nacional LGBTI+ por Cidadania, along with other groups.[21][22]
