Information relayed by Danske Handicaporganisasioner (DH) / Disabled People’s Organisation Denmark (DPOD)

DPOD is part of the group that facilitates the Disability Area Partnership adopted by the Danish Parliament parties on April 25. The political agreement states that the new partnerships must contribute to creating security and counteracting the loneliness and numbers of dissatisfaction among vulnerable and vulnerable groups throughout the reopening. The partnership must play an important role in developing new solutions and uncovering any new challenges as the society gradually reopens. The partnership must work until the reopening of the community is complete.

Action

• Sign interpretation and live captioning provided for live COVID-19 conferences as a result of advocacy from the Danish deaf association
• Civil society organisations have been consulted by authorities on how to best keep people informed. The Danish organisation of persons with disabilities (DH) suggested a national phone number run by authorities to read our information to those who need it, information in easy to read and close cooperation between authorities, civil society and trade unions.
• DH praises agreement: removes unreasonable dilemma for people at special risk
• Re-opening denmark: find solutions for people in special risk groups
