Slovenia has been committed to advancing the field of deafblindness for two decades. In 2021, it became the first country in the world to enshrine the language of people with deafblindness in its Constitution, and in 2025 it adopted the Act on the Use of Language of People with Deafblindness. The Ljubljana Memorandum 2026 has now attracted global attention, marking a new era in the understanding of deafblindness. The message is clear: every human being has the right to be heard, seen, understood and accepted.

Slovenia is known for its solidarity, and the festive season of Christmas and New Year, in particular, is a time of year when gift-giving is at the forefront of our minds. Charity campaigns such as Santa for a Day, the Three Winter Godfathers, Humanitarček, Botrstvo, school and municipal charity campaigns, and the like remind us that the essence of the festive season is inner joy and happiness and not just expensive gifts in shiny paper.
