Belgium: Activists representing the Spanish Hablamos Espanol association plan to protest in Place Jean Rey Brussels Sept. 18

Event

The We Speak Spanish (Hablamos Espanol) association has organized a demonstration in Place Jean Rey in Brussels from 12:00-13:00, Sept. 18. The purpose of the protest is to demand the freedom of choice of language in schools.

While participation levels are unclear, the protest could attract dozens of participants. Congestion and security measures, including potential road closures, are likely to cause localized transport disruptions.

Advice

Avoid all demonstrations as a routine security precaution and to mitigate associated disruptions. Check local advice if traveling in Brussels at the affected times, and allow extra time to complete journeys and plan alternative routes if necessary. Heed instructions from security services.
