Tomas Vytautas Raskevičius

In addition, he initiated a strategic litigation process, after which the identity documents of transgender persons in Lithuania can be changed without mandatory medical procedures (in 2017).

Raskevičius has also represented the applicants in the European Court of Human Rights in the case "Beizaras and Levickas v. Lithuania" (hate speech on the social network "Facebook").

In February 2021, a group of people called for the resignation of Raskevičius from the position of the chairman of the Seimas Human Rights Committee and claimed to have collected more than 300,000 signatures.

As it turned out later, the vast majority of these signatures were fake, and the group acknowledged that their petition had no real legal force.

He received the 2018 National Equality and Diversity Award for his work in the field of protection of human rights of LGBT+ persons.
