A No Border Camp is organised in Brussels from the 25th September to the 3rd October. The location,  the program, and the principles of the camp have been published (you can also have a look to the travel coordination page.
Many actions are organized by different groups during the week, some of these actions are directly related to freedom of movement and some other concern the current Belgian presidency of the European Union.

In the last years, a lot of struggles related to migration issues took place in Belgium. In detention centres, revolts and escape attempts happen regularly, with different degrees of success.Outside these centres, collectives of migrants have organized and still organize hunger strikes, demonstrations or occupations of churches and empty buildings, in order to obtain the regularisation and to fight against belgian anti-migration policies. Finally, various actions for freedom of movement and against the deportation industry have been hold: legal support to migrants, anti-deportation actions, sabotage against companies (particularly the ones involved in the construction of the new camp in Steenokkerzeel) and blockades of detention centres.
