At the #GlobalDisabilitySummit Independent Living activists from around Europe protest the insufficient political will to change the system. No money into segregation!

Is the disability community inclusive of people with hidden impairments, including autistic people? Today at #GlobalDisabilitySummit it becomes clear that more needs to be done. Our autistic Policy Coordinator Florian is sure that the IL Movement is paving the way.

On our way to the Civil Society Forum taking place before #GDS2025 starts tomorrow. Our advocacy priorities: 1. Get independent living & #deinstitutionalization on the agenda, 2. Legal capacity for all, 3. Leadership of persons with #psychosocial & #intellectual disabilities.

Thanks, @desibility.bsky.social, for sharing the news of the recent judgment our client achieved at the #ECtHR against #Moldova for modern slavery. Plenty of other important news and articles in the Disability Debrief!

I couldn't be more proud of the @validityfoundation.bsky.social team & our Moldovan partners. This crucial judgment is the first ever addressing servitude of persons w disabilities in context of #DI under Article 4 #ECHR. Inclusion means support in the community, not treating people as possessions.

⚖️ LANDMARK RULING: European Court Finds Moldova Failed to Prevent Disability Servitude In a legal first, the Court found violation of Article 4 #ECHR in respect of our client I.C., who was "placed" in a family under guise of #DI, where she was horrifically abused. ➡️ Article: bit.ly/3F0Hy7A

Victor was only 15 when he was placed in an abusive psychiatric hospital in #Moldova. As a child with a #disability, he should have received support and care. This year, he achieved justice at the #ECHR. Here's Victor's testimony. If you can, please support our seasonal appeal: shorturl.at/w4c7F
