Join VUB at Brussels Pride on Saturday, 17 May 2024! We’ll kick off at 2 PM in Ravensteinstraat, Brussels. See you there!
Did you know this is the first Brussels Pride since the event was officially recognised as intangible heritage by the Brussels-Capital Region?
In October 2024, the Brussels-Capital Region added Brussels Pride to its list of intangible cultural heritage, making it only the second Pride in the world to receive this official recognition. The next step? A transnational application, led by Amsterdam, to UNESCO. The goal is global recognition of Pride, strengthening LGBTQIA+ rights worldwide—at a time when, unfortunately, hard-won progress is too often under threat.
That’s something we, as a university, wholeheartedly support.
At VUB, you are free to make decisions about your own body and to love whoever you want to love.
