Need for Enforcement of Anti-Sexism Legislation in Cyprus

February 9, 2025

The anti-sexism legislation passed in Cyprus in 2020 remains inactive, despite incidents that should have been addressed by authorities. Skévi Koukouma, the Secretary General of the Women's Movement POGO, expressed concern over the lack of proactive intervention. At a conference held in Nicosia, speakers included officials and representatives of organizations, highlighting the importance of enforcing the legislation. The situation calls for action rather than public denunciations.
