The Luxembourg Garden railings in Paris is hosting a moving and thought-provoking free outdoor photo exhibition entitled “Vivre Debout” (“Live Standing Up”), organized in partnership with Handicap International, from 20 September 2025 to 18 January 2026. The exhibition offers a rare and intimate look at the lives, struggles, and extraordinary resilience of people living with disabilities around the world. Gérard Larcher, President of the French Senate, and Marie Ève Bugnet, Director of Handicap International France, inaugurated the exhibition, underlining the importance of recognizing not only the suffering but also the hope and determination embodied in these stories. Handicap International was awarded the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize for its fight against anti-personnel mines, marking a historic recognition of its life-saving mission. In a world marked by ongoing conflicts, natural disasters, and social inequalities, this exhibition reminds us of the urgent need to stand with people whose lives are forever changed by injury, disability, or exclusion. “Vivre Debout” is a call to acknowledge human resilience and to build a more inclusive and fraternal society.
