Brussels International and hub.brussels are launching a new Call for Projects, on the initiative of State Secretary for Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade Pascal Smet.
Brussels is an open and supportive city, and we translate that to the outside world as well. Moreover, we play a leading role in implementing 2030 Agenda of the United Nations. To achieve this, we are tackling poverty in a structured way by developing sustainable economic activities. That is why we are again launching a call for concrete projects in 4 partner regions in the South.
Context
The Brussels-Capital Region (BCR) wants to contribute to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations and more specifically to the global eradication of poverty through sustainable and inclusive economic development.

This Call for Projects was created to support sustainable and inclusive economic development projects in developing countries.
- The projects must be implemented in an urban or semi-urban context.
