A visit from the Council of Europe

2021-01-26

There has been a lot going on recently. Also behind the scenes. Recently, a virtual delegation of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities, an advisory body of the Council of Europe, came to Poland. Politicians and the Ombudsman office participated in the talks. The Congress is preparing a report with emphasis on discrimination of LGBT people by local authorities. I had a chance to present my opinion on this subject. There is no consent to local authorities discriminating against their own residents. Keep your fingers crossed!
