Vlaamse Volksbeweging

The Vlaamse Volksbeweging (Flemish People's Movement) is a cultural and political organization in Belgium that promotes the interests, identity, and autonomy of the Flemish-speaking community. Founded in 1961, it advocates for greater recognition of Flemish language, culture, and political self-governance within Belgium’s federal system. The movement seeks to strengthen Flemish national consciousness and often supports policies favoring regional authority and independence, emphasizing the importance of preserving Flemish heritage and language in a country with multiple linguistic communities.
