About Brussels
🇧🇪 PTPI Brussels – Belgium (Global Coordination Centre)
Chapter Contact: office@ptpi.network
📍 Brussels, Belgium
PTPI Brussels is more than just a chapter — it is the Global Coordination Centre (GCC) of People to People International. As the administrative heart of our organization, PTPI Brussels manages international communications, membership systems, digital platforms, and day-to-day operations that keep our global network thriving.
But beyond the behind-the-scenes work, PTPI Brussels plays an active and meaningful role in the local community. Living in a country where much is already well-organized, it took time to discover where we could truly add value. Today, our most impactful role has been as an enabler — bringing people and projects together through connection, collaboration, and shared values.
What We Do
Together with a strong partner network, we regularly host:
-
☕ Coffee mornings and Job Clubs
-
🗣️ Networking drinks and community parties
-
🛠️ Workshops and skill-sharing sessions
-
🤝 Volunteering days for local and international causes
These activities help us link locals, expats, newcomers, and students across Belgium, providing space to connect, learn, and grow — always aligned with the PTPI mission of Peace through Understanding. Once the program is in place and local leaders are empowered, the system flows beautifully with only light coordination needed by the core team.
We don’t tell our community what to do. Instead, we support what they want to create, providing the tools, values, and visibility needed to make a real difference.
About Belgium
Belgium, a small but vibrant European nation, offers a rich blend of history, culture, and nature. Brussels — the capital of Belgium and of the European Union — is a truly international city where global decisions meet charming street cafés.
📍 Visit the stunning Grand-Place, a UNESCO World Heritage site

📍 Explore world-class museums, chocolate shops, and centuries-old breweries
Known for its culinary delights, Belgium is home to waffles, world-famous fries, rich stews, and over 1,000 types of beer — many of them brewed by monks in centuries-old abbeys. From moules-frites to chocolatiers, the food scene is irresistible.
Beyond the cities, discover the Ardennes with its peaceful forests and villages, or enjoy the Belgian coast for a seaside escape.
