Join the Voices of Change tour and discover Ghent’s spirit of resistance! Explore protest sites from the Middle Ages to today and uncover how this progressive city shaped its identity through activism.
Gent has always been a beacon of resistance. Its desire to be different contributes to its combative identity. During this walk, I will give you an overview of the Gent resistance through the centuries. Who are the noose bearers? Which women spoke out during the Industrial Revolution? And what obstacles does the social sector face today?
I invite you to be curious, to think along, and to discover together how resistance. And social work still goes hand in hand in this committed city.
