Not a single child left on the street. Period.

Bel­Re­fu­gees, Amnes­ty Inter­na­tio­nal, CIRÉ, Ligue des Familles and other orga­ni­sa­tions com­mit­ted to the rights of migrants and/or chil­dren invite you to join the sta­tic and pea­ce­ful gathe­rings on Fri­day 5 Decem­ber, orga­ni­sed across Wal­lo­nia and Brussels.

This Fri­day 5 Decem­ber, on the eve of Saint Nicho­las Day, dozens of “Not a single child left on the street. Per­iod.” gathe­rings will take place in Brus­sels and Wal­lo­nia. There is very like­ly one near you. Join in !

This sum­mer, the fede­ral govern­ment adop­ted mea­sures aimed at spee­ding up the pro­ces­sing of appli­ca­tions for inter­na­tio­nal pro­tec­tion. One conse­quence is that cer­tain requests are no lon­ger accep­ted, for­cing people – inclu­ding fami­lies with chil­dren – to fend for them­selves, some­times even slee­ping on the street.

You too can express your indi­gna­tion by joi­ning one of the gathe­rings orga­ni­sed across Wal­lo­nia and Brussels.

The list of these gathe­rings appears at the bot­tom of the page and is regu­lar­ly updated.
