The City of Brussels is launching "Wij Quartier", a new citizen participation initiative aimed at gathering residents' experiences, priorities, and ideas to improve neighborhood quality of life.

The goal is to build concrete solutions with residents and local stakeholders. Participation can be done online via the FaireBXLsamen platform, or on the ground with the Babbeleir, a mobile participation table set up on a cargo bike by the Bruxelles Participation service.
Following the consultation phase, the collected ideas will be analyzed. A citizen meeting will then discuss the proposals, which may eventually be submitted to the College of Mayor and Aldermen.
The detailed program by neighborhood is available on the FaireBXLsamen website.
