A giant chess board in our district

A giant chess board could make our central square more lively.

It is also a fun way to introduce kids to the game. Chess is a game that can be played by all ages. But it can sometimes seem a bit elite. That's why a real-life game can make people curious to learn about the rules and play.

It will also benefit the social cohesion in the neighbourhood. It's a reason for old people to come out and play. We might think of also including smaller games on tables for people with disabilities.

A civil servant or volunteer could be there on specific moments in the week to help people and answer questions.

Renovation of the city hall

Only one historical building is left at the Schuman Square in Brussels. The building dates back to 1928 and has maintained its classical style throughout the years. However, a plan has been set in motion to demolish the historical exterior of the building by placing an unsightly steel construction over its classical roof. Will you allow the mutilation of a historic building located at the center of Europe? Help us preserve this piece of history of Brussels and sign our petition!

We appreciate as much help as we can possibly find. So even if you are not an inhabitant of our City, we would kindly ask you to distribute our proposal amongst as many people as possible. 

#3

A new playground for our district

There are no playgrounds in District 2 compared with 0.44 playgrounds per 1000 children for the rest of our City and 0.26 playgrounds per 1000 children in District 2. 

Playgrounds help encourage children's cognitive, physical, emotional and social development and also their families. For this reason children in the areas surrounding District 2 should have access to nearby, quality playground with structures for both toddlers and older children.

There are seven primary/preparatory schools in the vicinity of District 2, and also several children’s playgroups at local churches, but there are no outdoor play area for the children.

We would like to ask the City to allocate funding for the building, inspection, maintenance and cleansing of a new playground.
