Because of the linguistic diversity in the country, Belgium is divided into regions and communities, each with its own responsibilities. Thus Belgian citizens are protected by regional constitutions and laws as well as by national legislation. To reflect this reality, this page is divided into five different sections: Belgium, Brussels, Flanders, the German-speaking community and Wallonia. More information can be found on the country insight pages. Young people are protected by the Charter of Child and Youth Rights. In these pages you will find lots of information on your rights and duties, the justice system, human rights and equality.
