SUMMARY:International Colloquium with WÄERTVOLLT LIEWEIN: Personal Assistance
DESCRIPTION:When you slide more or less quickly from independence to total physical and social dependence\, you really need to have confidence in your environment and in society in order not to lose the will to live. Where does your personal life begin to be ‘worth living’ or ‘no longer worth living’? What happens then to trust in politics? \nWäertvollt Liewen is committed to ensuring that people with serious illness and/or disability have the opportunity to decide how and where they want to live their lives. This is in line with Article 19 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) (Living independently and being included in the community) and Article 15 (6) of the Luxembourg Constitution (Every disabled person has the right to equal enjoyment of all rights). \nThe ‘Action Plan for the Implementation of the CRPD 2019-2024’ ended on 31 December 2024. What went well and what needs to be improved? In the new Action Plan\, self-determination\, personal assistance and personal budgets should be declared the main goal. Their Implementation will enable people to live together in dignity and inclusion\, including the most needy among the disabled. \nClick here to download the conference registration form in English. \nProgramme from March 13\, 2025\n14.00 – 14.30 Reception of the participants\n14.30 – 15.10 Welcome speech by Wäertvollt Liewen \nAddress by Max Hahn\, Minister for Family Affairs\, Solidarity\, Living Together and Reception of Refugees \nAddress by Martine Deprez\, Minister for Health and Social Security \nAdress by Corinne Cahen\, Alderwoman for Integration of people with special needs\, Luxembourg-City \n15.10 – 17.10 Presentations\n17.30 – 18.00 Break\n18.00 – 18.40 Presentations\n18.40 – 19.10 Interviews\n19.10 – 20.00 Round table discussion\, questions and conclusions \nAfter the round table discussion\, Wäertvollt Liewen invites the participants to a cosy and well-deserved ‘Walking Dinner’ with musical accompaniment by Guilhem ‘Pone’ Gallart. \nAttend in person or online.
