Call to Join Purple Night Romania 2024 – Celebrating and supporting persons with disabilities

In 2023, Purple Night Romania demonstrated remarkable participation, with four municipalities, two embassies, one ministry, and 31 corporations collectively lighting up 48 landmarks across the country. This wave of support underscored a commitment to fostering a more accessible and inclusive environment for all.
This year's campaign aims for an even wider reach and deeper impact. The RDCC invites municipalities, companies, and individuals from across Romania to take part in Purple Night Romania 2024 by illuminating the exterior of their offices/buildings in purple or adopting creative interior displays such as purple-themed decorations, attire, or digital visuals. These efforts, especially recommended for November 29th, the final working day of the month, will amplify the movement's call for inclusivity.
“Purple Night Romania is a powerful symbol of the change we need to see in our country - a Romania where everyone, regardless of ability, is valued and empowered. By lighting up our spaces in purple, we shine a light on the barriers that still exist and the steps we must take to break them down,” said Lestat Monroe, founder and Board Member of the Romanian Diversity Chamber of Commerce.
Participation in Purple Night Romania provides a platform to champion the rights and contributions of the disabled community while raising awareness about the barriers they face. By coming together under a common colour and cause, supporters help pave the way toward a more inclusive society.
Organisations that lack the technical capacity to light their buildings can still show support through various means:
