Harmful conversion therapies are still permitted in Switzerland (with the exception of a few individual cantons). A nationwide ban is needed!
We call on the Swiss government to immediately ban conversion therapies for LGBTQ+ people in Switzerland.
Conversion therapies are harmful, unacceptable and violate the human rights of LGBTQ+ people, and studies and experts agree that conversion therapies have no scientific basis, are ineffective and have serious negative effects on the mental health and well-being of those affected. LGBTQ+ people who undergo such therapies often experience depression, anxiety disorders, suicidal thoughts and social isolation.
Despite the enormous psychological damage that conversion therapies cause, they have not yet been banned in Switzerland!
Switzerland stands for equal rights, acceptance and respect for all people, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
Conversion therapies are a form of discrimination and abuse that should have no place in our society!
Our aim is to send a strong signal to the government and society that conversion therapies will not be tolerated. By supporting this petition, we are campaigning for a world where all people are free to be themselves without fear of harm or discrimination.
