The European Commission has issued a recommendation to end conversion practices across EU member states. This move comes in response to growing concerns about the harmful effects of such practices.
Despite this recommendation, it does not fulfill the demands of advocates who have been pushing for a complete EU-wide ban. Their efforts were highlighted by a citizens' initiative that successfully gathered over one million signatures.
The push for stronger legislation reflects a significant public sentiment against these practices, which many consider to be 'barbaric.' The debate continues as advocates seek more decisive action from EU authorities.
