HOW WE WORK

Some of our work.

Lavender Common's core work is producing the legal research our partners use to help LGBTQ+ communities across Europe. With expertise from our bar panel and law firm partners, we've built research and litigation support across four key areas.

Pride bans as a freedom of expression issue

Examining how bans on Pride marches engage the right to freedom of expression and assembly under European law.

State responsibility to ban conversion therapy

Research into governments' legal obligations to prohibit conversion therapy practices.

Article 10 ECHR protections for LGBTQ+ nonprofits, groups & businesses

How freedom of expression protections apply to LGBTQ+ organisations operating across Europe.

Cross-border recognition of marriage rights in EU countries

Legal research into how member states recognise same-sex marriages performed elsewhere in the EU.
