EDSA NEWSLETTER – JULY 2025

The July 2025 edition of the EDSA Newsletter offers a monthly overview of key developments across our European network, featuring contributions from over six countries. Highlights include a welcome message from President Dinka Vukovic on EDSA’s new platform, a spotlight on the Down Syndrome Society of Slovenia, and details about the upcoming Annual General Assembly in Malta. We celebrate the release of a Moldovan poetry book, “The Bouncy Little Socks”, and mark 40 years of advocacy by Fundació Catalana Síndrome de Down in Spain. Research updates cover healthcare disparities for people with intellectual disabilities, as well as new findings on speech delays, early-onset Alzheimer’s, stroke risk, and food neophobia. Policy coverage includes an analysis of the 2025 European Semester and a practical guide to the European Accessibility Act. This issue also features a downloadable emotional communication tool, open calls for the #BeActive EU Sport Awards and CERV Inclusion Grants, and an invitation for members to contribute to future editions.
