The sponsors of the inclusion initiative will submit 108,000 collected signatures to the Federal Chancellery in Bern on Thursday. The initiative calls for equal rights for people with and without disabilities in all areas of life.
The initiative's sponsors announced on Thursday that a temporary ramp to the rear entrance of the Federal Palace will be set up on the Federal Terrace so that people in wheelchairs can also hand over the paraphernalia. The signatures are to be submitted to the Federal Chancellery at 3.45 pm.
According to the initiators, people with disabilities experience numerous forms of discrimination in everyday life, be it in housing, at work or on public transport. The initiative therefore calls for legal and actual equality.
The inclusion initiative was launched by the associations Inclusion Handicap and Agile.ch, together with other partners. The Federal Chancellery will check the signatures to determine whether the initiative is successful.
