Protect the Protest: Presentations & panel discussions around the right to protest

Protesting is a fundamental human right. It allows people to express their opinions, demand change, and hold governments accountable. The Luxembourg government is working on a new draft law that could restrict the right to protest. These changes could make it significantly harder for groups, associations, and activists to peacefully express their concerns. They would disproportionately affect already marginalized communities who are calling for justice and equity.

Join us on September 19th to discover more about the right to protest and how you can act to make a change! We will go through the history of protests in Luxembourg, analyse international cases, learn more about the new draft bill in Luxembourg and hear perspectives from different speakers, including activists from Luxembourg and beyond, an expert on the right to protest, as well as a historian exploring the role or protests as a tool for resistance.

Free entrance – registration needed (limited spots!)
