The main objective of this legal report is to analyze the Inter-American Court of Human Rights’ sentence in the case Atala Riffo and Children vs. Chile. This sentence was chosen because it’s the first case in which the Court uses the category “sexual orientation” as a criterion protected by article 1.1 of the American Convention on Human Rights. That resolution began the already abundant jurisprudence on protecting LGBTI people’s human rights. In response to what happened with Mrs. Atala Riffo and her daughters, the Inter-American Court highlights the importance of the principle of equality and non-discrimination for the effective application of the rights contained in the Convention, such as equality before the law, private and family life, judicial guarantees and the specific protection of children. In conclusion, it’s argued that in the Inter- American System for the protection of human rights: (i) the list of categories protected by the non-discrimination is open, (ii) the application of the law shouldn´t give rise to differences in treatment based on sexual orientation, (iii) the sexual orientation of the mother or father is not relevant in custody or disciplinary processes, and (iv) the human rights of the children, to be heard in all matters that affect them, is duly protected by articles 8.1 and 19 of the Convention.
