Where to Sleep Made in Belgium Attractions Good to Know ] Subscribe To This Site belgium government Even for natives it is difficult to understand Belgian politics. There is a federal Belgium government, a Flemish, Wallonian, Brussels and German government. One very strange thing is that it is impossible for Flemish people to vote for French speaking candidates and visa versa. This is for sure the root cause of a lot of troubles and misunderstandings in this country. Three big parties traditionally dominate politics in Belgium: the Christian democrat, socialists and liberal party. Other smaller parties in Flanders are the green party and nationalistic parties. For the American reader, in Europe Socialists are left parties but they do not have anything to do with communists or your idea of socialists. In your country socialist is a term of abuse. In Europe, these are normal parties that concentrate more on working people rather than on economics. Traditionally there is also a strong right wing party. For the moment there are three right wing parties and the strength of them changes every election. Traditional parties do not want to go in a Belgium government with the right wing parties. It all started in the twenties Most current problems started in the twenties when Wallonia refused to make Belgium completely bilingual. In those days, French was the dominating language in all-official bodies. Government, higher education; everything was in French. The Flemish movement fought this and little by little Flanders got the right to use its native language again. In the sixties, again some very bad decisions were taken by the Belgium government and now, fifty years later, the two communities are completely alienated from each other. The famous bilingual Belgium exists less and less. Most Flemish youngsters do not speak proper French anymore and the French speaking part of Belgium was never interested in developing Dutch skills.The lingua franca becomes thus English. Isn’t that weird?

Euregio Scheldemond In Cijfers - Zeeland, Oost- En West-Vlaanderen - Homepage The Euregio Scheldemond includes the Provinces of East- and West Flanders in Belgium and the Province of Zealand in the Netherlands. Presentation of this cross-border cooperation between these provinces. http://www.euregioscheldemond.org/

HOME CIJFERS KAART LINKS ... Inleiding Euregio Scheldemond Euregio Scheldemond is het samenwerkingsverband tussen de provincies Oost-Vlaanderen, West-Vlaanderen en Zeeland. De samenwerking verloopt via twee belangrijke pijlers. Enerzijds is er de werking van de Scheldemondraad , anderzijds is er de INTERREG-werking De grensoverschrijdende samenwerking tussen de drie provincies is in een stroomversnelling terecht gekomen in 1989, toen de Gouverneurs van de provincies Oost- en West-Vlaanderen en de Commissaris van de Koningin van de provincie Zeeland een intentieverklaring tot grensoverschrijdende samenwerking ondertekenden. In 1993 werd deze intentieverklaring bezegeld met de ondertekening van een afsprakenregeling tussen de drie provincies en de installatie van de Scheldemondraad. De Scheldemondraad is een overkoepelend grensoverschrijdend samenwerkingsplatform, dat de gezamenlijke belangen van het werkgebied signaleert en formuleert en de grensoverschrijdende samenwerking bevordert op de terreinen milieu, ruimtelijke ordening, recreatie en toerisme, verkeer en vervoer, gezondheidszorg en welzijn, sociaal-economische aangelegenheden alsook onderwijs en cultuur. Sinds 1991 heeft deze grensoverschrijdende samenwerking ook een financiële impuls gekregen via het Europese subsidieprogramma INTERREG . De Europese Commissie wil via dit programma projecten in grensgebieden stimuleren opdat de Europese binnengrenzen zouden vervagen. Eén van de binnen INTERREG II goedgekeurde projecten betreft "Plussen en minnen" (Euregio Scheldemond in cijfers) waarvan u hier het resultaat ziet.
