The Federal government, the Flemish and Walloon regional governments and the government of #Norway have signed an undertaking that will facilitate the transportation and storage of CO2 between Belgium and Norway. It also paves the way for the CO2 Highway Europe project, a collaboration between the Belgian gas distribution company Fluxys and Equinor to build an offshore CO2 pipeline between the West Flemish port of Zeebrugge and Norwegian CO2 storage sites.

Cultural events from #Flanders are receiving wonderful visibility in the Nordics thanks to Flanders in the Nordic Countries!
Flemish city Stad Gent in focus in Finland! ⚡ UNITED - OFFBEAT - GROUNDBREAKING ⚡ A party marathon, new rituals, cabaret vibes. A battle over the Amazon, the struggle for survival of art, and coded rice cookers. Social theatre, multimedia performing arts, and collective play. This, and much more, is headed your way in Espoo and Helsinki at & Espoon teatteri’s new festival &Fest – Focus Gent. From 5 to 28 March, the festival presents six current and varied performing arts productions from Flanders, Belgium. We were happy to partner with the festival and join Artistic Director Erik Söderblom for the official opening, following a first seminar about innovative and creative citizen participation, with Deputy Mayor of Gent Sami Souguir, NTGent Director Daan Vander Steene, Director of the Culture Department of Gent Lien Van de Velde and artist and researcher Simon Allemeersch. The Festival opened on 5 March in Tanssin talo in Helsinki with the critically acclaimed and powerful ONE SONG performance by Miet Warlop, in the Histoire(s) du Théâtre IV series of NTGent. Building on the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union 2024, we were honored to welcome resident Ambassadors, the Mayor of Helsingin kaupunki – Helsingfors stad – City of Helsinki Juhana Vartiainen and many other guests to Miet Warlop's performance on 6 March and to a presentation of the Belgian Presidency and the EU work on Culture, currently chaired by Minister-president (and Minister of Culture) Jan Jambon. We also informed our guests of Gent’s candidature to become European Capital of Culture in 2030. The first two performances attracted a full house with over a 1.000 spectators, but there are still 20 days left to savour the best of what Flanders has to offer in podium arts in Espoo. 👉 Programme and tickets: https://lnkd.in/dJE4jJND 📣 Yle on Espoo Theatre Ghent Focus: "Ghent has become a performing arts mecca in Europe(...)
