Belgium: Demonstration denouncing violence against women planned in Brussels, Nov. 27

Event

Women's rights activists plan to demonstrate in Brussels on Nov. 27 to denounce femicide and violence against women. Participants will gather in Mont des Arts - Kunstberg at 13:00. Several thousand activists could attend the event.

Authorities will almost certainly deploy police to monitor the event. Large crowds and related security measures will likely prompt localized traffic disruptions. The demonstration will most likely be peaceful.

Advice

Avoid all demonstrations as a routine security precaution and to mitigate associated disruptions. Allow extra time to complete journeys and plan alternative routes if necessary. Heed instructions from security services.
