European Day of People with Disabilities

To mark the European Day of People with Disabilities, the European Commission organises a policy conference in the first week of December each year, in close cooperation with the European Disability Forum (EDF).

This year's Conference will take place in Brussels on 3 and 4 December and it will deal with "Creating conditions for independent living". The Conference will contribute to a better understanding of issues related to independent living, in particular economic autonomy, community services and assistive technologies.
