Have your say: EU public consultations related to victims’ rights
Dear VSE members,
We remind you that the European Commission has recently launched public consultations related to victims’ rights and that can be of interest for you:
- Fighting child sexual abuse: detection, removal and reporting of illegal content online – Deadline 15 April
- Hate speech & Hate crime – inclusion on list of EU crimes – Deadline 20 April
- Combating gender-based violence – protecting victims and punishing offenders – Deadline 10 May
- Modernising judicial cooperation between EU countries – use of digital technology – Deadline 11 May
- Combating terrorism – evaluation of EU rules – Deadline 16 June
These consultations are not only an opportunity for you to share your national views and the situation on the ground but it also allows to play an active role in influencing the upcoming EU legislation and initiatives on each topic, which will ultimately influence the national legislations themselves and your work with victims.
We therefore strongly encourage you to submit an individual answer to these consultations and to share your response with us. Knowing better your priorities will help us in our future advocacy work.
If you don’t have time to submit your own answer you can share your views or observations with us (please contact Léa Meindre-Chautrand, Policy Officer at lea@victimsupporteurope.eu).
We are looking forward to hearing from you!
All the best,
VSE Policy Team
