On the 21st of March, we are celebrating the World Down Syndrome Day . Unfortunately , the c orona virus crisis we are currently facing has left its impact on the different celebrations that were planned. Nevertheless, it remains an important cause to mark and it is good to discuss our responsibilities towards our fellow human beings with Down s yndrome and to evaluate the European policies. It is encouraging that 108 Members of the European Parliament signed a declaration that demands better rights for persons with Down s yndrome giving an important call to action.
