The annual ‘Walk Against Discrimination (WAD) 2023’ will be held at Syntagma Square in central Athens on Tuesday (March 21), International Day against Racism, ANA reports.
Over 100 organizations of civil society are supporting WAD 2023, representing people with special needs, the LGBTQI+ community, the Roma, migrants, HIV-positive people, the elderly, people with mental disorders, and religious minorities, among many others.
Unlike other years, organizers noted, “this year we will not walk, we shall remain standing at the place we rally, as a protest against the lack of progress in human rights issues in Greece. We are immobile but standing up, holding high the baton of human rights, despite their trials.”
