    A long way to go for LGBTI equality

    This report presents select findings from FRA’s 2019 survey on LGBTI people in the EU and North Macedonia and Serbia. With almost 140,000 participants, it is the largest survey of its kind. It follows the agency’s first survey on LGBT people in the EU, conducted in 2012. The new survey results show little progress over the past seven years.

Access to justice, including rights of crime victims

New strategic guidelines in the area of freedom, security and justice by the European Council placed increasing mutual trust, strengthening the protection of victims and reinforcing the rights of accused persons and suspects high on the EU policy agenda. Many EU Member States adopted new laws or reformed existing laws and policies in this area, while efforts continued at UN, Council of Europe and EU level to strengthen the rule of law, judicial independence and the efficiency of justice systems, as cornerstones of a democratic society.

Être « trans » dans l’UE – Analyse comparative des données de l’enquête sur les personnes LGBT dans l’UE – Résumé

Les personnes trans, ou celles dont l’identité et/ou l’expression de genre diffère du sexe qui leur a été attribué à la naissance, sont souvent victimes de discrimination, de harcèlement et de violence dans l’Union européenne (UE) aujourd’hui. Cette réalité engendre des peurs qui peuvent pousser un grand nombre d’entre elles à cacher ou masquer leur vraie identité. Le présent rapport se penche sur l’égalité de traitement et sur la discrimination fondée sur deux motifs : l’orientation sexuelle et l’identité de genre.

Equality and non-discrimination

Developments in equality and non-discrimination in 2014 were marked by the EU’s efforts to become more inclusive. Working actively to counter discrimination in all its forms and to foster equal treatment requires sustained efforts by all interested parties, so EU institutions worked closely with Member States and FRA to raise awareness on issues of discrimination, including on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity, or to encourage recourse to redress mechanisms.

Being Trans in the EU - Comparative analysis of the EU LGBT survey data

Trans persons, or those whose gender identity and/or gender expression differs from the sex assigned them at birth, face frequent discrimination, harassment and violence across the European Union (EU) today. This reality triggers fears that persuade many to hide or disguise their true selves. This report examines issues of equal treatment and discrimination on two grounds, namely sexual orientation and gender identity. It analyses data on the experiences of 6,579 trans respondents from the EU Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) survey, the largest body of empirical evidence of its kind to date.

Droits fondamentaux : développements juridiques et politiques clés en 2013. Highlights 2013

L’Union européenne (UE) et ses États membres ont pris une série de mesures importantes en 2013 pour protéger et
promouvoir les droits fondamentaux : endosser de nouveaux engagements internationaux, réorganiser la législation,
poursuivre des politiques novatrices sur le terrain. Pourtant, les violations des droits fondamentaux ont fréquemment saisi
les medias : les noyades de candidats à l’immigration au large des côtes de l’UE, une surveillance de masse sans précédent,
des meurtres motivés par le racisme et l’extrémisme, la pauvreté des enfants et le dénuement des Roms.
