This is why, because of its vital facilitating role as a link between economic sectors stimulating The free international flow of goods and foreign trade have business activity and international trade, the transport and always been of crucial importance to the Belgian economy. logistics sector is a cornerstone of the Belgian economy. As By way of illustration, in 2019, exports and imports of goods a matter of fact, regardless of the economic sector, combined accounted for just over 160% of the Belgian GDP, transport and logistics activities can be found transversally with Europe remaining by far our country’s main export and across all types of businesses. In other words, in an open import destination, followed by Asia. As a result of its economy like that of Belgium, transport and logistics are economic openness and its dependence on international heavily dependent on the free movement of goods within a trade, Belgium ranked 3rd on the 2019 KOF Globalization globalized market.

As a matter of the expertise of Belgian businesses in leading many fact, according to the National Bank of Belgium in a 2017 transport and logistics operations. study, the transport and logistics sector is unquestionably an economic driving force of the Belgian economy with its services generating 7.6% of its GDP and 8% of jobs in the country. 1.3 Key assets Relative importance of logistic activities inside and outside The significant contribution of the transport and logistics the logistics sector, 2017 (in % of GDP) sector to the Belgian GDP and its positive effects on domestic employment are the result of a great number of key competitive advantages that Belgium has to offer, such as geographical location, infrastructure and accessibility. 1.3.1 A Gateway to Europe Thanks to its central geographical position at the heart of world trade flows and the main European markets, Belgium possesses a major asset to conduct logistics activities. A staggering 80% of Europe’s purchasing power lies within a 800 km radius (+- 500 miles) from Brussels. Consequently, Belgium is a gateway to 500 million European consumers.

In fact, according to the Belgian Federal Planning Bureau, the densities of Belgian transportation infrastructures by land, rail, and water are among the highest in Europe and greatly contribute to the attractiveness of Belgium as a logistics gateway to Europe. Belgium’s motorway network is the third most dense in Europe after the Netherlands and Luxembourg. When Source: ProLogis comparing the number of kilometers of motorway in Belgium (1,763 km) with the country’s total area (30,689 km2), the extensive coverage of the Belgian automotive network really becomes apparent.

The Belgian railway traffic and infrastructure then expanded rapidly during the industrialization period and, with a total rail network extending over 3,605 km today, is the second most dense in Europe after the Czech Republic. Belgium’s strong position is also reflected in the fact that it is a major player in the production of railway equipment. Thanks to the two major European rivers with their sources in France – the Scheldt and the Meuse – that cross Belgium from South to North and flow into the North Sea in the Netherlands, the density of the Belgian inland waterway network follows the same pattern.

  • Best Practices in Rural Development Flanders – Belgium
    Best practices in rural development Flanders – Belgium Nominated and winning projects Competition Prima Plattelandsproject 2010 Preface At the beginning of April 2010, the Prima Plattelandsproject competition was launched. In the frame of this competition the Flemish Rural Network went in search of the best rural projects and activities in Flanders, subsidized under the Rural Development Programme 2007-2013 (RDP II). No fewer than 35 farmers or organisations submitted their candidacy. A total of 32 candidates were finally retained by the Flemish Rural Network. These were distributed as follows in function of the competition themes: - added value through cooperation: 15 candidates; - smart use of energy in agriculture and rural areas: 0 candidates; - care for nature and biodiversity: 8 candidates; - communication and education as an instrument: 6 candidates; - smart marketing strategies: 3 candidates. The provincial juries decided which of the submitted files could continue to the next round (up to 3 projects per theme per province). Then an international jury selected the five best candidates for each theme for the whole of Flanders. After that, everyone had the opportunity to vote for their favourite(s)on the www.ruraalnetwerk.be website. No less than 7300 valid votes were registered! The four winning projects were honoured on 14 January 2011 during an event at the Agriflanders agricultural fair. Picture: The four winning projects.

  • Admodumcartusiensium
    Church History Church History and and Religious Culture 96 (2016) 65–79 Religious Culture brill.com/chrc Ad modum Cartusiensium Carthusian Inspiration for the Enclosed Saint-Agnes Convent at Maaseik José van Aelst Utrecht University, Faculty of Humanities, Utrecht, The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract After the enclosure of the Saint-Agnes convent at Maaseik in 1430, the regular canon- esses had to learn how to live within the claustrum. They received support from at least two Carthusian monks: James of Gruitrode, prior of the charterhouse in Liège, and Denys the Carthusian from the charterhouse of Roermond. Both Carthusians main- tained a regular contact and exchanged literature. James seemingly had a close relation with the nuns: he helped them enlarge their corpus of relevant religious literature, and there is evidence that he was involved in practical matters of the convent. Denys cor- responded with the mater of the canonesses, at whose request he sent an elaborate instruction on life within the enclosed convent, De vita inclusarum. In this triangle of religious relations, the Carthusians, experts in enclosed life, took their pastoral respon- sibility to support the reform of the canonesses and used the means available to them: the written word.
