Sign European Citizens' Initiative to ban "conversion" practices in the EU

If you're a registered citizen of the EU country make sure to sign this initiative!

We call on the European Commission to propose a binding legal ban on conversion practices targeting LGBTQ+ citizens in the European Union:

Conversion Practices are interventions aimed at changing, repressing or suppressing the sexual orientation, gender identity and/or gender expression of LGBTQ+ persons.

Such practices, due to their discriminatory, degrading, harmful and fraudulent nature have been qualified as torture by the United Nations, and are currently being banned in a growing number of States.

I would have signed it, but I am not giving away my name, email, and physical address online, online - not even an official EU agency website

Your choice, but it's the official EU website, if you're living there doesn't EU have you data already anyways? It uses it here to confirm that it's you

No I don't believe that they do. I don't think that the EU has a central registry of citizens. It is up to each country to register its citizens. I do believe that they may check that the people who sign up are real people, but I don't think that they can validate, by comparing to a central database.

I haven't heard of such a registry and it doesn't sound like a thing that the EU would be working towards. I already have an account with them though, that I created a few years ago, but they only asked for an email and for me to validate it.
