Hello everyone,

I am Machteld, from Belgium, and I am finalizing a European Citizens' Initiative (ECI) focused on the fundamental right to clean, safe, and accessible school toilets for all children in the EU.

The Problem: Poor sanitary conditions in schools force children into chronic "holding behavior" (refusing to use the toilet all day). This severely damages their pelvic floor and blocks the healthy flow of the lymphatic system, leading to long-term immune system issues, bowel infections, and bladder problems.

Our Goal: We are demanding mandatory EU infrastructure and hygiene standards for school toilets, coupled with educational campaigns about body functions.

What I have ready:

The complete initiative text and legal attachments are fully drafted and saved.

I am registered as the Representative for Belgium.

The legal entity (Lymphie BV) is officially linked to the campaign.

What I need: To officially submit the initiative, I am urgently looking for 6 co-organizers (1 substitute + 5 members) from 6 different EU countries (excluding Belgium).

Are you passionate about children's health, education, and basic human dignity? Please reply to this post or send me a direct message. I only need your basic contact details to complete the required organizer group.

Let's protect the health of our youth together!

Best regards, Machteld Mertens
