Supporting the Syndicat des immenses
The working group ‘Les précaires en colère’ which gathered during the first Open Assembly of Droit à un Toit/Recht op een Dak gave birth to the Syndicat des Immenses. DoucheFLUX opens its doors to their weekly gatherings on Mondays.
Documentation centre on poverty

Photo exhibition
In February and March 2019, Julie de Bellaing shared a few glimpses of the daily life of Claude, Frank, Rabah & Sébastien, regulars at DoucheFLUX. Four completely different individuals, with their own histories and backgrounds, but which society labels collectively as “(ex-)homeless”.
Street party
Every year, on Whit Monday, DoucheFLUX holds a stretch party and flea market. A great occasion for our neighbours – and everyone who is interested – to get to know DoucheFLUX and vice versa.
MasterClass
DoubleFLUX MasterClass aims to raise awareness among secondary school students and adults about the issue of homelessness in Brussels and to provide them with food for thought.
Outside!
Outside!, the board game about life on the street is an entertaining way to raise awareness about the issue of extreme poverty by discovering the reality of homelessness.
Think Tank Poverty
People rarely give much thought to what it means to be homeless. The think tank tries to approach homelessness from as many different angles as possible.
DoucheFLUX Guided visits in Cureghem
AlterBrussels trained some regular DoucheFLUX users to act as tour guides. They show visitors round their DoucheFLUX and present the Cureghem district from the unique perspective of their personal experience.
Objective D.F.V.P. (Objectif R.D.G.P.)
