Collecti.e.f 8 maars organises Belgium’s first official feminist general strike

← Back to Dashboard
📅 8 March 2019 📍 Belgium

Feminists called on women and people identifying as women to stop paid work, education, care work, housework and consumption, making visible labour often treated as private or unpaid. Thousands joined actions across Belgium; estimates for the Brussels march differed substantially between police and organisers. The collective connected gendered exploitation with racism, violence, workplace inequality and control over bodies, and drew inspiration from international feminist strikes.
