On Monday, 19 May 2025, the Policy Department for Citizens, Equality and Culture, at the request of the FEMM Committee, will organise a workshop entitled ‘Consent-based rape legislation in the EU’.
The workshop will examine key aspects of consent, the state of play of consent-based rape legislation throughout the EU, as well as awareness raising and capacity building in this regard. The workshop proceedings will feed into the joint LIBE-FEMM own-initiative report on the ‘Importance of consent-based rape legislation in the EU’. Members will debate with Sara Uhnoo (University of Gothenburg), Kristien Michielsen (KU Leuven) and Donna von Allemann (Women against Violence Europe Network (WAVE)).
