I joined the #EU2023SE Conference on LGBTIQ equality in Stockholm. As we reach the halfway point of the @EU_Commission’s first LGBTIQ equality strategy, it is crucial that Member States work to strengthen protection for LGBTIQ people and their rights.

On #InternationalRomaDay I call for stronger commitments to tackling antigypsyism & promoting Roma equality. I call on EU Member States to make improvements to their national Roma strategic frameworks & be more ambitious in their actions. Progress is still too slow.
