Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

OBJECT : We call on the Luxembourgish government and the Chamber of Deputies to guarantee free access to essential menstrual products such as tampons and sanitary pads for everyone in Luxembourg. Menstruation is a natural part of life and not a choice. However, the cost of menstrual hygiene products still represents a financial burden for many people. No one should have to give up basic hygiene because of a lack of financial means. We therefore demand: free menstrual products in public schools, universities, and administrative buildings; free access to tampons and sanitary pads in public toilets; government measures to make menstrual products more affordable or freely accessible in supermarkets; as well as long-term action to fight period poverty in Luxembourg. Access to menstrual products is a matter of health, hygiene, dignity, and equality. Other countries and cities have already shown that such measures are both possible and beneficial. Luxembourg should send a modern and supportive message by ensuring that nobody is disadvantaged because of menstruation.

OBJECT : We call for the creation of a legal framework allowing responsible bivouacking in Luxembourg under strict conditions respecting nature and following the "Leave No Trace" principle. Bivouacking differs from traditional wild camping: it is a light, temporary and discreet overnight stay in nature, generally limited to one night, between sunset and sunrise, without permanent installations or long-term occupation of the area. This practice is mainly used by hikers, cyclists, trekkers and outdoor travelers wishing to spend a night in nature while respecting the environment. The aim of this petition is not to authorize permanent or uncontrolled wild camping, but to allow a reasonable, discreet and responsible use of natural areas. We specifically propose: * authorization limited to one night in the same location; * a strict obligation to leave no waste behind; * prohibition of open fires; * full respect for private property, wildlife and flora; * prohibition in sensitive natural or protected areas; * use of lightweight and discreet equipment only. Several European countries already apply similar regulations successfully, balancing environmental protection with responsible access to nature. This measure would help: * promote sustainable tourism; * encourage outdoor and nature-based activities; * strengthen environmental awareness; * support a responsible and regulated outdoor culture in Luxembourg.

OBJECT : L'objectif de cette pétition est de créer un statut de "Flexi-job" sur le modèle belge, adapté aux réalités du Luxembourg. Ce statut permettrait aux salariés touchant moins de 5 000 EUR brut par mois ainsi qu'aux retraités d'exercer une activité complémentaire au-delà des limites légales du temps de travail. Les revenus de ce second emploi seraient totalement exonérés d'impôts et de cotisations sociales jusqu'à un plafond de 18 000 EUR par an, offrant un levier direct pour augmenter le pouvoir d'achat et franchir les critères d'accès au logement locatif.
