Origin 'Week of Interconvictional Dialogue'

In 2002 the City of Brussels and the Brussels Capital Region met the founders of 'Marseille-Espérance', a meeting forum of religious leaders. That was the beginning of the project 'Bruxelles-Esperance'. In 2005 a structure was created with a mission: subdue tensions between the communities. It was the start of the 'Week of Interconvictional Dialogue', with its slogan: 'meetings in order to get to know each other'.
