On the territory of the City

The International Solidarity Unit introduces activities of information and raising awareness for the North-South problems. It aims at informing everybody about the existing inequality in the world and it wants to create bigger solidarity between the people in Brussels and the rest of the world.

The Unit is in touch with the associations of Brussels and encourages the citizens to mobilize for the international solidarity and help associations in their educational work.

The South

The Unit is the direct link between Brussels and the local authorities of the partners in the South. It therefore manages the actions of development in those countries.

Call for projects

The Unit launches a call for projects every year. This call allows associations in Brussels to lead an activity of raising awareness and/or to start a development action in the South.

Consultative Council

The Unit assures the functioning of the Advisory Council of International Solidarity (CCSI) and its various working groups.

Partnerships

The Unit takes care of the follow-up of international partnerships.
