[Belgium] suggestion for upcoming activity

Wed Nov 11 14:44:48 PST 2015

Thank you for your interest in this topic !

I am volunteer at the Red-Cross, so I could also relay to that network, as well as to 'La Strada', and some other small structures.

Now, I never attended such a mapping party, so I do not know how many people to expect. I could mobilize some, but few with a cartographic background. However, people from the field could perhaps bring useful informations that are not otherwise easily accessible ?

Best regards,

Christophe

PS : There is perhaps also something to do for the migrants as well !

Next week we will start the « Plan Hiver» (http://www.medecinsdumonde.be/belgique/le-plan-hiver) in SAMU to open medical facilities for homeless people. In parallel, they also have a project for migrants this year « Quai 22 » at Willebroeck (http://nl.metrotime.be/2015/11/04/news/dokters-van-de-wereld-ziet-aantal-consultaties-asielzoekers-in-brussel-verdubbelen/; http://www.telebruxelles.be/emissions/interview/).
