About Antwerpen Studentenstad & the House of the Student
Submitted by annelies on Wed, 09/02/2009 - 11:18
Boasting 33.500 full-time students out of a population of 470.000, Antwerp definitely is a college town. Hence, it was by no means a surprise that Robert Voorhamme, Antwerp’s alderman of Education, made the first move towards the establishment of Antwerpen Studentenstad. An organisation whose main objective is to look after student’s interests.
Antwerpen Studentenstad is a non-profit organisation, the fruit of a cooperation between the city of Antwerp, the Antwerp University Association and the Antwerps Studentenoverleg (Antwerp Student Council).
Antwerpen Studentenstad works hard for a student-friendly city: sufficient and high-quality housing, a clean and safe student district, cheap rental bikes, cultural offers to great advantage, cheap and safe party areas, clear policies with respect to placarding and ragging, and much more.
