The uniqueness of BELEXPO isn’t limited to the exhibition’s concept but also translated through its integration within a so-called ‘educational continuum’. Because acquiring new knowledge in tandem with the environment gives meaning to what is being learnt. Because taking action for the environment fosters citizenship skills. For teachers and instructors, BELEXPO represents one of the most extensive educational platforms around.
