Petitions to the Chamber of Deputies

PURPOSE : L'état préoccupant de nos forêts, aggravé par les effets du changement climatique, entraîne une multiplication des arbres morts ou fragilisés. Ces arbres représentent un danger réel : ils peuvent s'effondrer sur les voies publiques en une fraction de seconde, sans signe annonciateur. Or, la législation forestière actuelle ne prévoit aucune obligation claire pour les communes ni pour les propriétaires forestiers privés de retirer préventivement ces arbres dangereux à proximité des chemins et sentiers. Cette lacune constitue un risque sérieux pour les promeneurs et usagers de la forêt.

PURPOSE : This petition calls upon the Parliament to take active measures against the spread of invasive species such as the raccoon, Nile goose, and Asian hornet, in order to protect the country's biodiversity, agriculture, and public wellbeing.

PURPOSE : We believe that culture should be for everyone-not just those who can afford to pay for access, and not just those who can walk through a door. We are calling on the luxembourgish Parliament to recognise this barrier and work with communities to find a fair, inclusive solution-whether through subsidised access to accessible venues, public cultural spaces, or infrastructure support for small event organisers. What We're Asking For We're calling on the luxembourgish Parliament to work with communities and make culture accessible for everyone. Here are some practical steps that would make a real difference: 1. Accessible public spaces for culture Community centres, school auditoriums, libraries, or other publicly-owned venues could be opened up as fully accessible cultural hubs. ➡️ This would mean a young comedian, poet, or musician could put on a show without worrying about stairs-or about whether their audience can get in the door. 2. Support for private venues Offer financial help-through tax breaks, grants, or subsidies-to bars, cafés, and restaurants that invest in accessibility and agree to host community events without charging extra. ➡️ This would mean small cultural events could happen in popular, central spaces, instead of being shut out by high costs. 3. Micro-grants for event organisers Provide small grants for organisers who want to rent accessible venues but can't afford commercial rates. ➡️ This would mean grassroots collectives wouldn't have to choose between accessibility and survival. 4. One platform for all venues citing accessibility infrastructure Create a central online platform where organisers can find up-to-date information on all venues and locations that includes their accessibility infrastructure, i.e. step-free access, toilets, hearing loops, quiet spaces, etc. The features/infrastucture would be self-reported by venues thus avoiding the need for costly external accessibility audits. It could be validated by the community to ensure accuracy. ➡️ This would mean less wasted time searching, less frustration-and more energy put into creating events people love. 5. Listening to disabled voices Set up a working group of disabled artists, performers, and event organisers to help shape long-term accessibility strategy. ➡️ This would mean policies are built on lived experience-not assumptions-and that solutions actually work in practice. Each of these steps is achievable. Together, they would open the doors-literally-to a cultural life where no one is excluded because of disability or money.
