14 www.ilga-europe.org Why is a Roadmap needed? EU misses a coherent approach towards LGBTI issues A hierarchy of recognition and rights still remains within the EU A roadmap will help to facilitate mainstreaming (Charter + Art 10 TFEU obligations)

15 www.ilga-europe.org What will the LGBTI Roadmap look like? ILGA-Europe sees the roadmap as a tool that: 1.Brings together all EU LGBTI equality actions into one package 2.Addresses the recommendations made by FRA as well as CoE CM & HRC 3.Makes progress towards equality measurable
