EUROPEAN DOWN SYNDROME ASSOCIATION

WDSD 2020 “We decide!” – Italy

Chiara fa la spesa al supermercato per cucinare una cena per i suoi amici. A Chiara piace decidere cosa mangiare e quali ingredienti comprare.

Chiara is shopping at the supermarket to cook dinner for her friends. Chiara likes deciding what to eat and what ingredients to buy.


All people with Down syndrome should have full participation in decision making about matters relating to or affecting their lives.
Effective and meaningful participation is a core human rights principle supported by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD).

Starting on 1 March 2020, we show 21 examples of people with Down syndrome from across Europe to make clear: “We Decide”.
