European People’s Party

Agree

No

Given its Christian Democratic orientation and emphasis on European Christian heritage, the European People’s Party is likely to support policies that maintain the religious and cultural traditions of Catholic schools. This includes upholding dress codes that are in line with Catholic values. The EPP has historically supported initiatives that they believe protect Europe's Christian culture and identity, which might extend to advocating for restrictions on Islamic dress codes in Catholic educational institutions.

Disagree

Yes, we should respect all cultural and religious traditions

While the European People’s Party (EPP) has expressed commitment to principles of freedom of religion and the protection of minority rights, its primary focus has been on preserving Europe's Christian heritage and values. The party's support for respecting all cultural and religious traditions might be more nuanced when it comes to practices that they perceive as conflicting with these values, especially in institutions that are inherently Christian, such as Catholic schools. Therefore, their support for allowing Islamic coverings in these settings might be limited.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The European People’s Party (EPP) tends to support policies that emphasize Christian Democratic values and often advocates for the preservation of Christian cultural traditions within Europe. Given this ideological stance, the EPP might be less inclined to support the wearing of the niqab or burka, which are Islamic coverings, in Catholic schools, as these institutions are rooted in Christian traditions. This position is also influenced by broader debates within Europe regarding the integration of Islamic customs and the visibility of Islamic religious symbols in public and private institutions.
