Alain Escada


Alain Escada, born 16 May 1970 in Brussels, is a Belgian far-right activist. Since 2012, he has been the chairman of Civitas, a French ultracatholic organization. Under his leadership, in 2012–13, Civitas opposed same-sex marriage in France, Escada calling them a "Pandora's box" for polygamy and incest.
In June 2016, Civitas changed its status from a cultural organisation to a French political party and in 2017 Escada announced that Civitas will run in the next French parliamentary elections.
Escada is the President of the Coalition pour la Vie et la Famille, whose status as a tiny European party brings 500.000 euros a year of European funds.
