  • Ready to renew our commitment to Europe

    Ready to renew our commitment to Europe

    Our campaign of inclusion and participation has never been about one person.

    All of it has been about you, about all of us together.

    About the belief that when more people get a say, our democracy works better.

    I am incredibly happy to have seen so many new faces, so many of you last night, showing up, getting involved.

    Luxembourg needs all of us, our European Union needs all of us.

    United in diversity is the motto of our Union, and where could that be more true, than in our Luxembourg?

    Luxembourg brings us together, and we will continue to celebrate this, and show the rest of Europe, what we can do when we work together.

    In these images, you will see people from Luxembourg to Romania to India, who all have one thing in common: Luxembourg is their home.

    Many of them have already become Luxembourgish citizens, many of them are European, many of them were always Luxembourgish citizens, what we all have in common is that we believe that Europe can work, must work, and will work, if we work together.

    Thank you once again, for all the interesting conversations and every word of encouragement.

    But more importantly, thank you for showing up, thank you for your engagement, thank you for your voice.

  • 1 in 3 Luxembourgers is a naturalised citizen.

    1 in 3 Luxembourgers is a naturalised citizen.

    1 in 3 Luxembourgish citizens here in the heart of Europe, in Luxembourg, is now a naturalized citizen. 1 in 2 residents is a non-citizen. 3 in 4 people working in Luxembourg are non-citizens. 🇱🇺

    These facts are not just about numbers; it represents the tapestry of stories, cultures, and dreams that make up our country.

    Looking ahead to 2030, the proportion of naturalised citizens, is set to grow even more, transforming our society and enriching our collective experience. But what does this mean for us as Luxembourgish citizens? And for our democracy?

    It’s not just a demographic shift; it’s a call to action. As our society diversifies, it’s our shared responsibility to ensure that all voices are heard and considered in the decisions that shape our democracy.

    I believe that every journey of immigration, every tale of growth, and every story of building a new life in Luxembourg adds a unique hue to the canvas of our nation. These perspectives are an opportunity to influence the very rules that guide our society.

    Our compatriots who’ve chosen Luxembourg as their new home have so much to offer. Their contributions aren’t just to be confined to workplaces; they must extend to our social leadership and democratic processes. The tapestry of perspectives they bring will help us in creating a more inclusive and harmonious Luxembourg.

    This brings us to an important thought: empowerment. We need to actively encourage more of our fellow citizens and residents to step into leadership roles.

    By doing so, we can tap into their diverse experiences and channel their passion and knowledge and perspectives into shaping our country’s bright, European future.

    As we gear up for the upcoming October vote, there’s a crucial point to consider. Your vote is your voice, and by connecting with the right people, you can vote tactically to support those who champion inclusivity and diversity and the true coming-together of our diverse, multicultural nation.

    It’s time to bridge the gap between citizens and leaders, to foster an environment where every perspective, old or new, is respected and valued.

    Luxembourg is evolving, and we’re all a part of this evolution. Let’s stand together, united in our commitment to embrace diversity, empower our fellow citizens, and pave the way for a future that’s brighter and more inclusive than ever before.
