Ivan is a director of Fundacion Iguales, a non-profit organization dedicated to the observance, promotion, and respect for human rights as a way to strengthen values such as equality and diversity. In addition to his activist work, Ivan is a lawyer who actively represents cases for marriage equality and advocates for the civil rights of the LGBTIQ+ community.
