Alexandre Bloxs is a deaf lawyer from Belgium who currently serves as Policy Manager at the European Union of the Deaf (EUD). He also contributes to academia as a teaching assistant at UCLouvain Saint-Louis Bruxelles, where he teaches in the Advanced Master’s Programme in Human Rights.
In addition to his role at EUD, Alexandre is President of the French-Belgian Federation of the Deaf (FFSB). He has extensive experience in disability rights, European affairs, and human rights advocacy at national, regional, and international levels. His previous roles include serving as Human Rights Officer for the World Federation of the Deaf (WFD), Accredited Parliamentary Assistant at the European Parliament, and Policy Assistant at the European Disability Forum (EDF).
With more than eight years of experience in both governance and operational roles, Alexandre has developed a strong understanding of the intersection of disability rights, EU legislation, and human rights. His unique combination of lived experience as a deaf person from a deaf family, fluency in multiple sign languages, and expertise in law and public policy places him in a strong position to contribute to the work of the European Disability Forum.
Alexandre is deeply committed to advancing human rights and the inclusion of persons with disabilities at all levels of society. His extensive experience across both the grassroots disability movement and high-level European institutions enables him to bridge the gap between policy development and practical implementation. Through this approach, he seeks to ensure that EDF’s work remains meaningful, relevant, and impactful for the more than 100 million persons with disabilities across Europe.
