The Green party suggests to relocate the refugees to the large building next door, the former hospital. The mayor has a different view. 

Local Matters is on tour this year. Every week, we travel to another part of Luxembourg - to explore what's happening locally.

The Voice of Business!

Europe's best independent music station based in Luxembourg! English speaking.

Local and state governments, though often overshadowed by federal government, have tremendous impact on our quality of life. This podcast provides a valuable service by educating people on how to improve their own quality of life through civic engagement. Various organizations encourage residents to register and vote, but it does not appear that anyone is showing voters how to make good decisions when they do. It feels akin to hiring someone for a job without reviewing the job description. Local Matters changes that narrative by educating voters with short, clear, and unbiased civics lessons from a career local government professional, public speaker, and management consultant.
