DataCare Country Overview - Belgium
In the context of the DataCare project, key data on children in alternative care for each country in EU and the UK have been analysed to map how EU Member States and the UK currently collect data on the situation of children in alternative care.
The Belgian National Commission on Child Rights published a report in 2016 on the existence of nationally comparably data on indicators connected to child rights. Although children in alternative care are only mentioned in one section of the report, the recommendations and the intention behind the report could form a good starting point for advocacy for nationally comparable data in Belgium, including data on children in alternative care.
