Amendments to the Code of Administrative Offences on LGBTQ+ and childfree issues: a briefing for media and NGOs (registration open until 15 April)

Would you like to understand what the new amendments to the Code of Administrative Offences on the “propaganda” of LGBTQ+ and childfree issues mean, how they may work in practice, and what risks they pose for the media, NGOs, and public communication?

• discuss what can be done to reduce risks;
