Languages live through everyday use. At home, at work, with friends, online or in public life, every conversation in Luxembourgish contributes to keeping the language alive. 😌

Luxembourgish has one very useful feature:
You can spend five minutes explaining something and still somehow end up using French, German and English in the same sentence. 🙃
#DagVunDerLëtzebuergerSprooch #Lëtzebuergesch
Luxembourgish learners today:
“I’m finally getting the hang of this!”
Luxembourgish:
“Excellent. Now pronounce ‘Kaweechelchen’.” 🤓
#DagVunDerLëtzebuergerSprooch #Lëtzebuergesch
Today, Luxembourg celebrates its language and the multilingualism that makes our country unique. 🇱🇺

Couples facing fertility treatment should not have to choose between waiting months in Luxembourg and taking on potentially significant financial and administrative uncertainty abroad. 😰
#Healthcare #PMA #CHL #CNS #PatientRights #FamilyPlanning
Fertility treatment waiting list be like:
Appointment: 7 months
Patience: 0 months
Biological clock: loud ticking noises
#Healthcare #PMA #CHL #CNS #PatientRights #FamilyPlanning
CHL: “We need more laboratory capacity.”
Government: “It’s planned for 2027–2028.”
Patients in 2026: “Cool. What do we do in the meantime?”
#Healthcare #PMA #CHL #CNS #PatientRights #FamilyPlanning
For couples undergoing fertility treatment, time is not an administrative detail.
A reported 7-month wait for a first appointment at the CHL PMA centre can have real medical and emotional consequences.⏳

Long-term peace requires more than agreements between governments.
It also depends on tolerance, solidarity and the willingness to find common ground. 🤝
#InternationalDayofPeace #InvestInPeace
Today, on the International Day of Peace, we are reminded that peace cannot be taken for granted.
In a world marked by conflict and geopolitical instability, investing in peace is more urgent than ever. ☝🏻🇺🇳
#InternationalDayofPeace #InvestInPeace
POV: You’re trying to contribute to world peace but all you can realistically do today is be nice to the person who annoyed you. 🙃😮💨
#InternationalDayofPeace #InvestInPeace
Peace is more than the absence of war. It means security, dignity, opportunity and the ability for people to build a future together. 🕊️

Healthcare administration must recognise the difference between an ordinary reimbursement request and a treatment decision that may affect a cancer patient’s prognosis.
Speed must be part of good healthcare.⚡️
#Healthcare #CancerTreatment #CNS #PublicHealth #Cryoablation
France/Germany: “We can offer the treatment.”
Luxembourg: “Excellent.”
CNS: “Please allow us a moment.”
The moment: 🗓️🗓️🗓️
#Healthcare #CancerTreatment #CNS #PublicHealth #Cryoablation
Cancer patient: “The treatment is available in Germany.”
CNS: “Great. First, let’s discuss the authorisation.” ⏳🙄
#Healthcare #CancerTreatment #CNS #PublicHealth #Cryoablation
Cancer treatment should not depend on how quickly paperwork moves...
If a modern, minimally invasive treatment is available just across the border, Luxembourg patients need a system that can respond just as quickly. ☝🏻

Pension coordination between Luxembourg and Germany is necessary.
But coordination must not mean that families lose benefits without a clear explanation of the rules.
#Pension #CrossBorderWorkers #Babyyears
Having a child should not require a cross-border pension strategy meeting. 🥵
#Pension #CrossBorderWorkers #Babyyears
You worked in Luxembourg.
You paid contributions in Luxembourg.
You raised your child.
Luxembourg pension system: “Yes, but Germany has entered the chat.” 🇩🇪🇱🇺🙃
#Pension #CrossBorderWorkers #Babyyears
A parent can work and pay pension contributions in Luxembourg while raising a child.
It is therefore legitimate to ask whether Luxembourg pension rights should nevertheless be displaced by periods recorded abroad. 🤔
