The Association of Lusatian Sorbs (Domowina) expects a clear commitment and concrete pledges for the Sorbian people from a new government in Saxony. "Domowina demands that the coalition defines and records binding steps in the coalition agreement. These should go beyond general commitments and guarantee rights at all levels - up to the state, district and municipal level," emphasized Domowina Chairman Dawid Statnik.
Sorbians criticize shortcomings in education
According to the Domowina head, the state government must actively support the Sorbian people in protecting their language and culture. The measures announced and taken in recent years do not meet expectations, especially in the area of education. "The lack of teachers is jeopardizing the teaching of Sorbian. Despite the measures that have been introduced, there is a lack of long-term security," it said.
