Two weeks ago, the new CSV-DP ministers were sworn in and nine days ago, Luxembourg’s new Prime Minister Luc Frieden presented the government’s programme in the Chamber.
The Luxembourgish organisation “Nëmme Mat Eis” (“Only with us”), which advocates for people living with disabilities, wants to send a message to the new government that they must not forgot people with disabilities. Members of the organisation decided to protest by the cathedral in Luxembourg City on Saturday afternoon with a list of demands for the new government under the banner of “not without us.”
With this Sunday being the International Day of Person with Disabilities, the organisation wants to remind the government that there are plenty of things that Luxembourg needs to work on to allow people with disabilities to live equally to others.
The organisation is also ready to work together with the government and ministers to propose constructive changes but only if there is a political will for change.
