As we approach the elections, the King Baudouin Foundation has put together a series of suggestions that may inspire political actors at every level.
In this document we have set out our suggestions and recommendations on the major societal challenges that have been the focus of the Foundation’s activities over the years. Policy-makers need commitment and support in these areas and must at least be well informed about them. The suggestions have come from a process of reflection carried out by the Foundation together with numerous different actors and partners and are also based on experience gained through pilot projects.
These include suggestions put forward on the reform and strengthening of European institutions, involvement of citizens in democratic processes at the European level, combating energy poverty and recognising and strengthening the role of philanthropic initiatives.
These suggestions have been made available to candidates who are asking for voters’ support and also to the leaders and research departments of the various political parties.
