Loneliness in Luxembourg?

Loneliness is becoming a growing social problem. According to a study, millions of people are affected in Germany alone. DP MPs André Bauler and Mandy Minella asked the Minister for Family Affairs how he sees the problem of loneliness in Luxembourg and what measures the Ministry is taking to combat it.

Question

„Rezent huet déi däitsch Familljeministesch eng Studie virgestallt, déi sech mam Thema vun der Einsamkeet an hire sozialen a gesondheetleche Konsequenze beschäftegt. Einsamkeet géif effektiv ëmmer méi zu engem seriöse gesellschaftleche Probleem. An Däitschland wiere Millioune Leit betraff an dofir gëtt gekuckt, fir divers Hëllefsefforten unzebidden. 

An deem Kader wollte mir dem Här Minister fir d’Famill, fir d’Solidaritéit, fir d’Zesummeliewen a fir den Accueil follgend Froe stellen:

  • Wéi gesäit den Här Minister d’Problematik vun der Einsamkeet hei zu Lëtzebuerg?
  • Wéi eng Mesüren hëlt de Familljeministère fir de Phänomen vun der Vereinsamung, besonnesch am Alter, ze bekämpfen?“
