Ubelievable. @gogentle_aus calls attempts to persuade people not to kill themselves "unethical and cruel". Suicide prevention is now harassment and/or coercion. Australian "safeguards" don't look like they will last very long. #assistedsuicide https://t.co/UAr954KTqS
The euphemistic (like the term #assisteddying) "allowed to die" is the wrong term. Allowing someone incompetent to die - whether a child or a disabled person - is at very least manslaughter. Let's be honest in this discussion, at very least. https://t.co/3IMCwpY0zQ
It may be Marion's death but it will not be her decision, will it? @MDMDmydecision as good as admit they don't really care about choice. Their true mission? To rid the world of inconvient lives. #euthanasia#assistedsuicide#disability
Civil society reporting is vital to tackle #HateCrime effectively and understand the needs of victims. If you monitor hate crime, we want to hear from you! Submit your data to ODIHR by 30 April here: https://t.co/6Vpx4Z7D6v
Despite progress, there is still no certainty that any country is on track to ensure access to quality inclusive education for all children with #disabilities by 2030. Learn more: https://t.co/LqVxapKAFS #DisabilityInclusion

This requires greater public-private sector collaboration to develop strategies for, with and by persons with disabilities."

Den glemte minoriteten
Tenk deg en hverdag hvor du ikke får velge det viktigste i livet; hvem du lever sammen med, hvor du bor, og hva du ellers holder på med.
Utviklingshemmede utsettes for grovere og mer omfattende menneskerettighetsbrudd enn andre.

Instead of talking about 'mental disorder' epidemics, how about we discuss the epidemics of loneliness, inequality, work dissatisfaction, child neglect, debt-stress, insecure or over work, domestic abuse, inflation, household poverty & various addictions (illicit & prescribed)..?
"Nothing About Us, Without Us!" is a well-known motto for the disability movement. It means that governments and other decision makers must include us in all issues that concern us as humans, not only as people with #disabilities. #DisabilityInclusion
Fordomsfullt språk. Når skal @KK_Debatt desken få samme språkstandard om #funksjonshemmede som for andre minorit? frisk? R vi syke? https://t.co/WeywybVn71
I'm encouraged by the statement of the #CRDP & the #CRC committees. They echo my concerns about children w/disabilities from #Ukraine being cross-institutionalized.
We call upon all actors to urgently address these concerns and reduce their risk of death, trafficking, & abuse.👇
