Left organizations in Belgium are using the typically slower European summer to gear up for ManiFiesta, the annual festival of solidarity that many recognize as the launchpad for a new cycle of political activities in the region. This year’s edition, set to take place on September 13 and 14 in the coastal city of Ostend, aims to reflect the country’s current political climate while capturing a broader spirit of resistance.

“Right now in Belgium, we’re seeing two major movements of resistance: one against the new government’s policies, and the other in solidarity with Palestine,” says Matilde De Cooman from Viva Salud. “These two are also connected because the new government has reached an agreement that will see big investments in the military, but not in public services.”
