Together, we raise awareness about intellectual disabilities, especially Trisomy 21, also called Down Syndrome, the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability.<\/p>\t\n<strong data-start=\"205\" data-end=\"235\">EU for Trisomy 21 (EUFT21)<\/strong> is a European collaborative network bringing together organisations, families, professionals, and self-advocates who are committed to improving the lives of people with Down Syndrome, also known as Trisomy 21.\nOur network includes many grassroots initiatives and organisations working close to people with Trisomy 21 and their families in their own countries and communities. By sharing experience, building common projects, and learning from one another, we create stronger European cooperation and help bring the voices and needs of people with Trisomy 21 into wider public and policy discussions.\nEUFT21 works to promote the freedom, visibility, health, inclusion, and equal treatment of people with Trisomy 21. The European Union can play an important role in areas such as healthcare, employment, education, accessibility, and human rights. However, support for people with intellectual disabilities is still often too limited, and stronger action is needed to ensure that their rights and dignity are fully respected.\n\t<p>To make a change, EUFT21 works to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stop discrimination and make sure people with Down Syndrome are treated fairly, with respect for their dignity and human rights.<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"ixye2w\" data-start=\"167\" data-end=\"300\">Help people with disabilities learn new skills, build confidence, and become more independent in their daily lives and communities.<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"tq7vm6\" data-start=\"301\" data-end=\"443\">Create chances for people with Down Syndrome to speak for themselves and talk directly to EU leaders, decision-makers, and the wider public.<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"10m9bj3\" data-start=\"444\" data-end=\"559\">Push for better laws, policies, and funding to support people with disabilities and their families across Europe.<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1e6xjwi\" data-start=\"560\" data-end=\"690\">Make sure the EU keeps its promises to protect disability rights and includes people with intellectual disabilities in its work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nOur activities include training workshops, skill-building programmes, awareness-raising events, and dialogue with leaders in the European Parliament and other European institutions. We also help people with disabilities learn about their rights, express their views, and take part in decisions that affect their lives.\nOur work supports important European commitments, including the EU Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030. Through our projects and advocacy, we work for a Europe where everyone has a voice, equal opportunities, and the support they need to participate fully in society.\n\t<h3>\n\t\t\t\tKo dara <i>ES Trisomy 21<\/i> gribi?\n\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<p>M\u0113s v\u0113lamies, lai cilv\u0113ku ar intelektu\u0101l\u0101s att\u012bst\u012bbas trauc\u0113jumiem vajadz\u012bbas k\u013c\u016btu par Eiropas darba k\u0101rt\u012bbas priorit\u0101ti, lai garant\u0113tu re\u0101lu l\u012bdzties\u012bbu starp pilso\u0146iem.<\/p>\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Redzam\u012bba<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<!-- END .front -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>People\u00a0with disabilities\u00a0are not\u00a0present in the political environment,\u00a0are not\u00a0present\u00a0in the labour market neither in the media.\u00a0If people with disabilities are not visible in the society, it&#8217;s impossible to create the necessary changes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<!-- END .back -->\n\t\t <!-- ifb-flip-box -->\n\t <!-- flip-box -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Nediskrimin\u0101cija<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<!-- END .front -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>ES diskrimin\u0101cijas nov\u0113r\u0161anas ties\u012bbu akti p\u0113d\u0113jos gados ir g\u0101ju\u0161i t\u0101lu uz priek\u0161u da\u017e\u0101d\u0101m minorit\u0101\u0161u grup\u0101m, iz\u0146emot cilv\u0113kus ar invalidit\u0101ti.
