For over a decade, the European Parliament has supported LGBTIQ+ rights, from combatting hate crimes to stronger legal gender recognition.
Currently in focus: ending conversion practices
In March, Parliament members discussed a citizens’ initiative demanding an EU-wide ban on LGBTQ+ conversion practices, focusing on a clear definition, protection for minors, improving cross-country cooperation and making sure EU money doesn’t go to organisations connected to these practices.
Parliament has long called for the EU to act on this issue.
On the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia, Parliament once again stands shoulder to shoulder with the LGBTIQ+ community ✊🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
