The World Women’s March Belgium organised a national march on International Women’s Rights Day. Police counted 10,000 participants. Organisers connected the rollback of rights with austerity, precarious and part-time work, the gendered pension gap, abortion rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, migrant rights and gender-based violence. This intersectional framing placed care work and women’s economic security inside the social-movement debate, rather than treating them as separate “women’s issues.”
