Religious education is commonplace in public schools across Europe, and is obligatory in many.

Key Points: 
  • Religious education is commonplace in public schools across Europe, and is obligatory in many.
  • In some European countries such as Slovakia, religious bodies are responsible for religious education curricula, and in Bulgaria religious schools follow their own curricula for religious education, which can include teachings that condemn LGBTQIA+ identities.

Religious communities and LGBTQIA+ children

  • In conservative religious communities, LGBTQIA+ children and adults alike can face rejection from their families, leading to higher risks of homelessness, mental health issues, and social isolation.
  • Discrimination is more pronounced in religious communities, but a lack of information about religious schools makes it a challenge to pin down this particular aspect of discrimination between different countries.

Religion does not equate to discrimination

  • The Maltese Constitution establishes Roman Catholicism as the state religion, and private schools are affiliated with the Catholic Church.
  • Romania is an Eastern Orthodox Christian society, where the church has significant influence on cultural and social matters.
  • Acceptance and protection of LGBTQIA+ people is very low, with a score of 19% on the Rainbow Europe map.
  • Both Romania and Cyprus are societies where LGBTQIA+ people report experiencing discrimination daily.
