XR Belgium

We are a diverse movement of people deeply concerned about the ecological and climate emergency the world is facing. We are an autonomous and decentralised, fastest-growing climate & ecology movement spread across 88 countries and thousands of cities. We are young people who care about our future, parents defending their children, grandparents rebelling for life.

A long history of burning fossil fuels and land exploitation has led us to worsening climate impacts - recurring environmental disasters, floods, droughts, fires, and crop failures globally. We are in the midst of a mass extinction of our own making. Governments across the world are urged to take immediate action and to drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions and pollution to protect the people and the planet from a disastrous future. Yet our government is ignoring the warnings and is still helping the very industries that are putting our lives in danger. But change is necessary and is possible.

We believe that our government will be compelled to act through civil disobedience and active participation of citizens. For this, we use creative and peaceful non-violent direct action and organise democratical people’s assemblies to put pressure on our government and bring equitable solutions to climate change and loss of wildlife. 

Our work relies on the generosity of our supporters and donors. Your donations will directly help us to organise more impactful actions and events. We are also striving to support our key volunteers tirelessly working to ensure that XR is more sustainable, and our actions and activities happen. 

All donations will be used to: 

Of all the donations, 10% is transferred to Global Support, the international branch of Extinction Rebellion. This 10% is used by Global Support to assist Extinction Rebellion groups across the world, which do not have the operating capacity to self-fund. A global crisis requires a global rebellion! 

Donations are received through All for Climate asbl, our fiscal sponsor.

We follow XR Belgium donor due diligence guidelines when looking for and receiving financial support from the prospective donors. We won’t accept money from funders which contradict our theory of change, including fossil fuel companies, pharmaceutical companies, mainstream banks, private equity firms, hedge funds, agri-bussiness companies, registered lobbyists, and political parties.
