Now
The City of Differdange has been nationally recognized for its commitment to senior citizens.
On October 25, 2024, during the Third Age Forum, the City of Differdange was officially awarded the “Senior-Friendly Municipality” certificate by the Ministry of Family Affairs, Solidarity, Community Living and Reception.
This recognition particularly highlights the Quartiertreff project, an initiative by the senior council that facilitates meetings with residents aged 60 and over in various neighborhoods throughout the city. This project benefits from financial support of €6,000, which will be used to produce a documentary film.
Since its establishment in 2021, the senior council has actively represented the interests of Differdange residents aged sixty and over. In 2025, a new dynamic is being implemented through the organization of neighborhood meetings.
