The year 2024 marks a political milestone with elections at all levels, from European to local. To celebrate this historic event and emphasize why voting is essential, the Archives and Museum for Flemish Life in Brussels (AMVB) presents the exhibition " 50 Years of Voting for Brussels: Why Voting Matters." The exhibition offers a captivating journey through the past five decades of elections and political change, with a special focus on the crucial years of 1974, 1989, and 2006. These years marked turning points in Belgian political history and led to significant state reforms, with a special emphasis on the evolution of the Brussels-Capital Region.
