We have to continue to stand up to the horrible attacks on the LGBTI* community 💪🏾⚡️
Today is a day to celebrate:
The LGBTI strategy is presented with concrete proposals how to strengthen our rights.
Everywhere in the EU, it must be clear:
LGBTI* rights are human rights 🌈🇪🇺

Questions: How can we organize international #solidarity with displaced women? Why is the #IstanbulConvention ignored by Greece, a signatory? How can we stand in solidarity with LGBTQI refugees? #gbv #LeaveNoOneBehind #COVID19 #refugeesgr @WRRoute webinar

Excellent news! Home Office confirms that newly-recognised refugees will continue to receive asylum support payments until their first #UniversalCredit payment arrives. This will be a lifeline for refugees who are settling into their new life in the UK. refugeecouncil.org.uk/latest…

Governments have often used crises as excuses to crackdown on rights. The coronavirus pandemic is no different. Protecting civil liberties, resisting scapegoating, and addressing underlying disparities are vital at this time. trib.al/uM2x57t

Although women are not more at risk of contracting #COVID19 than men, the effects of the pandemic are more than just physical.
Disease outbreaks lead to increased experiences of domestic violence affecting both #WomenAndGirls.

🚨We are deeply concerned by reports of threats and harassment of #HumanRights defenders on #Lesvos. We call on #EU and #Greek authorities to ensure that NGOs who seek to help people in need are protected and able to operate.

Thank you for our interest! We will put a recording up online. The link will be included in the follow up e-mail and on our website (womenrefugeeroute.org).

Tonight we've just been talking about #Lesvos, but let's remember that this is just the tip of the iceberg, concludes @JSanchezLambert. There are thousands more in highly precarious conditions, &
dozens organizations in need of support as we speak.

One day, in years to come, people will ask how Europe could have allowed thousands of people including children without parents, escaping war and persecution, to be concentrated in closed camps without protection from a pandemic disease. @WRRoute / @Lesvosolidarity/@lesboslegal
