May 09, 2017
The LIFE Belini project is celebrating its official launch event on 23 May 2017 at the Husa President Park hotel in Brussels. The event will be held in Dutch and French, simultaneous translation will be provided.

Over the years, the water quality of Belgian watercourses has improved significantly. However, further efforts are still necessary. With LIFE Belini, eight Belgian partners work together to improve the water quality in the Senne, Dijle and Demer basin.

The project includes a large number of measures to improve the water quality, contribute to a better biodiversity and reduce flood risks.
