Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

OBJECT : Nous demandons que : Les Aides socio-familiales soient revalorisées au même niveau salarial que les Aides-soignantes et les Auxilliaire de vie en reconnaissance des responsabilités et tâches réellement exercées au quotidien.

OBJECT : For a public intercultural and multilingual library in Luxembourg: a vibrant space to celebrate our diversity Luxembourg is home to 180 nationalities, with 47% of residents holding foreign nationality. This human richness is our strength, but it deserves a concrete place in which to fully express itself: a public intercultural and multilingual library, open to everyone. Why is this project essential? • Access to reading for all: books in all family (mother-tongue) languages, free and accessible, so that every child and every family can read and learn in their own language • Equal opportunities: reducing inequalities in access to culture and education by offering resources tailored to all communities • A space for encounter: a place where cultures meet, stories are shared, and people learn from one another • Support for family-language or mother-tongue schools: more than 40 schools teaching over 30 languages could find resources and a space for their activities • A model of integration: demonstrating that Luxembourg, a multilingual country, can be an example of social cohesion and peaceful coexistence

OBJECT : We wish to draw the attention of the relevant authorities to growing concerns regarding the safety of children within and around educational institutions. On the one hand, it has been observed that certain playgrounds and school surroundings, when accessible outside of school hours, may be exposed to vandalism or the presence of hazardous waste such as broken glass, syringes, or other harmful substances. These elements pose a direct risk to children's health and safety. On the other hand, the issue of safety among students themselves requires urgent attention. Incidents of physical violence can occur from a very young age. Some children are subjected to blows or aggression, sometimes repeatedly, without adequate responses being provided. These incidents are not isolated and are part of a broader context in which violence can manifest at different stages of the educational journey. Recent events, including those in secondary schools, highlight the need for early intervention. We firmly believe that education in respect, conflict management, and kindness must begin at an early age. Prevention is essential to ensure that such behaviors do not become entrenched over time. In light of these concerns, we call for: Effective securing of playgrounds outside school hours; Systematic and thorough cleaning of school premises before students arrive; Increased supervision within schools and their surroundings; Serious and consistent handling of incidents of violence between students, including in daycare and kindergarten; The implementation of prevention and respect-based education programs adapted to each age group; Improved communication between educational staff and parents on these matters. The physical and emotional safety of children must remain an absolute priority. Schools must remain safe environments where every child can grow, learn, and thrive without fear.
