Horizon 2014: What LGBT Rights in the EU?
Tuesday, 29 November 2011On Thursday 8th December, we will hold a public roundtable on LGBT rights in the EU between now and 2014. If you are in Brussels, you are welcome to attend the discussion. Please register online by Sunday 4th December.
How are LGBT rights covered by EU laws and policies today? What progress can we achieve by the end of the current EU mandate in 2014? What are the stepping stones on the road to equality for the coming years?
These questions will be answered by a panel of speakers:
- Emmanuel Crabit Head of Unit, Fundamental Rights and Rights of the Child, European Commission
- Matteo Bonini-Baraldi Programme Manager, Department for Equality and Citizens’ Rights, Fundamental Rights Agency
- Silvan Agius Policy Director, ILGA-Europe
The panel will be chaired by Sirpa Pietikäinen MEP, Vice President of the Intergroup on LGBT Rights.
