14/03/2025 - Equality and Non-Discrimination PACE General Rapporteur, on Day to Combat Islamophobia: ‘Hatred and prejudice against Muslims across Europe is growing’ 27/01/2025 - Equality and Non-Discrimination ‘80 years after the liberation of Auschwitz, we must continue to fight discrimination and intolerance’
30/01/2025 | 18:01:02 Thank you, President, Colleagues, This report holds together, in a way that I think is right, two issues that are not only not antithetical, but instead are indispensable to each other: giving rules to social network platforms to strengthen everyone's freedom of expression and preventing, as is now the case, the freedom of expression of some from being at the expense of, impeding, denying the freedom of expression of others. This is the case with hate speech, which cannot be justified... 03/10/2024 | 16:39:19 President, thank you. Colleagues, There is violence and discrimination that many women suffer, not just because they are women, but doubly so, because they are women and because they are lesbians, simply because they want to live out their nature and their feelings, as equals, without having to hide. It is a vicious and pervasive form of discrimination, which sinks in prejudice and stigma. It prevents people from living their lives freely, from realising their happiness, which is the most... 01/10/2024 | 11:01:37 Thank you, President. Colleagues, We have long had the illusion that the internet, Web 2.0, would strengthen freedom of information, allowing anyone to create and disseminate content. In reality, disintermediation, by taking away the role and reputation of journalism, has struck a fundamental pillar of any democratic system. Free, autonomous and independent journalism is a fundamental garrison, and today it is under attack. Instead, the net is invaded by propagandists disguised as fake... 27/06/2024 | 19:48:13 President, thank you. President, Colleagues, Yes, it is true. This debate is urgent. Because even among the countries of the Council of Europe, even among the countries of the European Union, there is a worrying regression in the area of autonomy of information and freedom of expression. Freedom of expression that can never be absolute, must always respect the principle of non-discrimination, but freedom of expression that is the very heart of any democracy. It is the vital boundary that... 25/06/2024 | 11:09:49 Thank you, President. Colleagues, Democracy is the most important good, yet today this awareness in the public is weak and under attack. It is crucial that it is the new generations that affirm a new democratic consciousness. Our democracies are experiencing a deep, structural crisis. It is a political crisis, and we need a response that is fully political. Democracy is not static; it is not neutral. It lives only if it succeeds in building emancipation, if it keeps the promise of change of...
