Proud to launch #TogetherforEquality, an @EqualRights study which brings together stories from so many of our friends around the world, to explore the benefits of a collaborative and comprehensive approach to tackling discrimination. 1/5.
Today, we launch our new study: TOGETHER FOR EQUALITY . It draws on the testimony of our partner equality defenders across the globe to explore why and how a comprehensive approach to tackling discrimination works. Read it here 👉.

Great news. These #StandardsForEqualityBodies are key to ensuring effectiveness of these bodies. The @EqualRights + @UNHumanRights Practical Guide to Developing Comprehensive Anti-Discrimination Legislation identifies them as THE global gold standard. Kudos to @equineteurope.
What a great step towards a #UnionOfEquality!🎉. Yesterday, the @EUCouncil agreed on a General Approach to the @EU_Commission's proposals on #StandardsForEqualityBodies, which will make #EqualityBodies better equipped to achieve #Equality. More resources on Standards ⬇️

It was a real privilege to attend the inaugural Jonathan Cooper Memorial Lecture on Friday and hear a rousing call to arms, action and anger from @Richie_Jackson. Inspirational. Thanks to Richie, @HelenMountfield, @MansfieldOxford and @BonaveroIHR.
I'm honored to be giving the Inaugural Jonathan Cooper Memorial Lecture tomorrow March 10th, at The University of Oxford. My lecture will strip away the rainbow-tinted veneer of what it looks like to be LGBTQ+ today, exposing the glorious but treacherous reality. @MansfieldOxford
