This present professional sufficiency work focuses on the analysis of the judgment rendered by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights in the case of Olivera Fuentes vs. Peru, issued in February 2023. In this judgment, the Court determines the international responsibility of the State for discriminatory acts committed by a private individual against Manuel Olivera. The main problem of the case is to analyze the international obligation of respect and guarantee that the Peruvian State had in order to protect Mr. Olivera's human rights and examine the State's actions in light of the facts, followed by an evaluation of the arguments presented by the aforementioned Court when sanctioning it. According to the American Convention on Human Rights, the Andean Charter for the Promotion of Human Rights and the jurisprudence of the same Court, the State violated the rights to equality and non-discrimination, judicial guarantees, and judicial protection, which negatively impacted Mr. Olivera's rights to privacy and free development of his personality. To do so, the Court had to establish that sexual orientation was a prohibited ground for discrimination that the State had a responsibility to protect. Building on the foregoing, this report asserts the relevance of consolidating sexual orientation as a prohibited ground in Peru since 2002 and its establishment as a widely accepted standard since the Atala case, resolved by the Court in 2012.
