At the Democracy Hours, young people will discuss democratic values and the role of state institutions with deputies. The program also includes educational games and quizzes that target concepts such as democracy and civic participation.

The Comrat Territorial Information Office of the Parliament will organize an information session in the south of the country, with a focus on the involvement of young people in public life and in the decision-making process.

Visitors to the Parliament will be able to leave messages for deputies through an ideas and impressions box, and the most inspired ones will be published on the official pages of the parliamentary institution.

The Parliamentary Opening Week will conclude on September 20, with the organization of the Conference “Youth Decide the Future of the Republic of Moldova”.

“Through these activities, the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova reaffirms its commitment to promote open dialogue, civic engagement, and the development of a generation of active and responsible citizens,” as stated in a press release from the institution.

The event is organized in the context of the International Day of Democracy, marked annually on September 15, starting from 2007, according to a resolution of the UN General Assembly.



Economic operators and service providers will be required to ensure the accessibility of products and services for people with disabilities, the elderly, and individuals with temporary or permanent functional limitations. The accessibility requirements are contained in a bill voted on in the first reading by Parliament, reports IPN.

The new requirements will target six areas: technology and software programs, e-commerce, financial services, transportation, services provided by public institutions, and emergency communications. The regulations will also apply to electronic communication services, access to audiovisual media services, web pages, mobile applications, and self-service terminals.

Accessibility requirements will also be mandatory for certain products, such as hardware systems, payment terminals, ATMs, and e-book readers. Micro-enterprises that offer services will be exempt from complying with these obligations.

The project, developed by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, aims to increase the autonomy and inclusion of people who face access difficulties.

Non-compliance with accessibility requirements will be subject to administrative penalties. The project will be examined in the second reading, and the new rules will come into effect on January 1, 2028, with certain exceptions for products and services.

A new section of Muncesti Road has entered the rehabilitation process. The City Hall of Chisinau announces that the milling works on the roadway have begun on the sector between Arca Moldovei Street and Bacioii Noi Street, a stage that precedes the complete modernization of the asphalt surface, reports IPN.
