Greek MEP @GiorgosAftias has called for EU funding for “disabled people’s villages”. We say no. Segregation is not inclusion. Disabled people have the right to live in the community with support, choice and dignity. Read the full article: shorturl.at/dyFjr

Full autonomy for persons with #disabilities is a cornerstone for an inclusive society.  European Independent Living Day is an excellent moment to remind us that many efforts must still be made to help us lead more autonomous lives.  📢 Here’s a shout for independent living!

@JoncourNicolas1: I require support during my daily life to do certain processes but I have the final say in the decisions. Institutions take away this choice & control. From European Independent Living Day event on legal capacity & supported decision-making. #ilday2026

@Soufianeelamr17: “We all need support to make decisions. So why aren’t people with intellectual disabilities given the support they need to live independently?” From European Independent Living Day event on legal capacity & supported decision-making. #ilday2026 #disability

For many people with disabilities – especially those in institutions –everyday choices are made by others. This European Living Day, let’s stand up for the right of people with disabilities to live independently, decide, participate, and belong – always on their own terms 📣
