Cyprus

As I always have. I will continue the good work. I was a member of the Intergroup of the LGBTI Rights and a close friend and collaborator of the head of the group Michael Cashman.

By participating in the European Parliament’s LQBTI intergroup and by being in a constant and open dialogue with ACCEPT-Cyprus, ILGA-Europe and IGLYO and European Centre-Right LGBT+ Alliance.

I believe that two of the most important factors for delivering these commitments and making sure policies are implemented is calling out the violations/injustices/discriminations when they happen and also accountability. People and organisations as well as the EU should be held accountable in the case they do not implement what they have committed to. Another major factor I would like to work on is education. Education is key to creating a better world for the next generations. These are 3 of the ways I would deliver on these commitments

I support the delivery on these commitments.

We need to keep accountable all the EU institutions for the Treaties and the agreements we sign as EU, therefore if elected I will push for following up with all those Treaties and keep the dialogue open on how can we do more for the member-states concerning human rights across all identities.

Human rights for all is a core pillar of our manifesto. The protection of human rights, the resistance against the democratic backsliding and the need for a progressive agenda founded on respect, understanding and empathy in multicultural and diverse societies, is one of the key reasons behind our decision to get in mainstream politics and have Volt Cyprus established.

I will keep an open channel of communication with the LGBTQ civil societies. I will always be active in promoting and upholding human rights, equality , health, and quality of life for the communities!

I will advocate for policies that help establish equality for all. I am and I will keep working closely with my friends in human rights and LGBTQIA+ civil society organisations in the local communities to ensure that their voices are heard, and that policies are shaped accordingly, implemented and protected across the EU.
