The 541 Days appeal
541 days of political and institutional deadlock.
541 days of shattered hopes.
541 days of sterile debates and unanswered mobilizations.
541 days watching Brussels slide into an unprecedented institutional vacuum and funding crisis.
541 days: a sad record.
We gave political leaders time to reach an agreement. A lot of time. But Brussels no longer has any to spare.
Standing up for tomorrow
Let’s build a future together for the Brussels-Capital Region.
We Are Brussels brings together citizens who demand that political leaders meet in conclave and finally agree on a government pact and a budgetary roadmap.
We are not asking for a perfect agreement, but for one that allows the Region to protect what is essential, keep public services running, support those who keep Brussels alive, and care for the most vulnerable among us.
In the medium-term
We will continue to express, with strength and creativity, our concerned love for Brussels through bold democratic actions, together with all the Region’s driving forces..
In the long-term
We also wish to organize a Citizens’ Convention, through a B1000 process, to reflect on the political and institutional future of Brussels beyond the current crisis.
