The European Parliament adopted on Thursday a resolution criticizing Poland for the bill on sex education. 471 MEPs voted in favor of the resolution, 128 were against and 57 abstained. The motion for a resolution is signed by MEPs of the largest factions in the EP: EPP, Socialists and Democrats, Renew Europe, Greens, and GUE.

In this document, the EP called for the Polish parliament to refrain from adopting the proposed bill and to ‘provide youth with access to comprehensive sex education.’ In the resolution adopted, the EP ‘expresses its deep concern about the extremely vague, broad and disproportionate provisions of the bill, which de facto aim to criminalize the dissemination of sex education among minors.”

The EP condemns recent events in Poland which were aimed at misinformation, stigmatization, and prohibition of sex education as well.
