DoucheFLUX wants to combat the exclusion of those living in precarious circumstances, whether they are homeless or living in poor housing, documented or otherwise, wherever they come from. At the heart of its mission is the human being and his dignity. DoucheFLUX offers basic yet essential services, organises

activities and awareness-activities  to deconstruct stereotypes around extreme poverty and spread the message that homelessness is a problem that can be solved. In response to the coronavirus pandemic, DoucheFLUX also opened temporary accommodation for homeless women.

Awareness

Think Tank Poverty #29 – From good practices to proposing a model of social intervention

Next Think Tank, on 11 February 2021, will start off with the book ‘Construire avec les naufragés. Un accueilpagnement psycho-médico-social des personnes sans-abri’ by the organization Comme chez nous. It presents the general public and, in particular, those active in the field with a model which, by definition, can be generalised and adapted by other organisations.

Shower power (Sous la douche, le ciel)

Shower power (Sous la douche, le ciel) is a documentary by Effi & Amir. They follow DoucheFLUX during five years (2012-2017) in their efforts to set up a building dedicated to public showers and other hygiene services for homeless persons in Brussels. More information about the film and screenings here.

Accommodation during covid-19

Since April 2020, and in response to the coronavirus pandemic, DoucheFLUX has expanded its activities to include temporary accommodation. This is an original project, rich in experiences and one that certainly opens up new possibilities. Around fifteen people, mostly women, are housed in accommodation such as hostels or hotels, and benefit from social assistance and a series of cultural, sporting, well-being and entertainment activities, as well as quality meals.
