The present work aims to answer to the following question: how is protection against persecution of sexual orientation and gender identity in Mercosur? In this sense, this research aims to analyze how sexual orientation and gender identity is treated within Mercosur. The research is justified by the fact that LGBTI+1 rights were recognized as human rights in June 2011 through the Resolution of the Human Rights Council nº A/HRC/17/L.9/56. Considering this, Mercosur plays an important role in the integration of human rights, since it is based on the Ushuaia Protocol on Democratic Commitment in Mercosur, Bolivia and Chile, regarding the democratic level of the countries that form the bloc, and the violating country may be suspended from the activities in the bloc in the event of non-compliance with democratic values, such as human rights.
