Terry is the Green/EFA coordinator in the Committee on Women’s rights and Gender Equality (FEMM).She has been working on issues such as better representation of women, intersectional discrimination and EU anti-discrimination policy as well as the empowerment of women in the digital age. Her work focuses strongly on fighting the backlash of equal rights, which we are witnessing all over Europe and beyond. The right to decide over your own body is at the very centre of this battle.
