The National Artists Platform was officially established in autumn 1998 after numerous informal contacts between a variety of artists’ associations.
It grouped together about 25 Belgian artists’ associations from every possible discipline and from the three language communities. The platform suceeded to act as a privileged discussion partner in problem situations ‘on the ground’ and in the political debate about acces to social security for artists. Reforms in this domain came trough in 2002.
