6. Jos Van Rillaer

73 | 
Ville de Bruxelles

Jos is a retired civil servant with a strong passion for arts and culture. 

“I want to help build a city where it’s good living for everyone. Where opportunities for creativity and solidarity are created in an open, safe, and durable way. A Brussels where every citizen’s potential is stimulated and developed, and where we actively fight inequality.” 

I choose Vooruit because I want to actively fight the huge inequality between the citizens of Brussels. Inequality prevents too many people from positively living their freedom and undermines the solidarity in our society. And that’s certainly true in Brussels. 

As a retired civil servant for culture, I am attached to the creative and critical cultural scene, it’s the fertile basis for a rich and open Brussels.
