Samenvatting

In this chapter, the governmental as well as nongovernmental organization of sports in Belgium will be discussed. However, in the framework of this book, it is not possible to present an in-depth analysis. Therefore, this contribution should be considered as a brief overview of the most relevant features of sport policy and sport
participation in Belgium. First, we describe the sport system, including the core principles of the organization of sport in Belgium. Second, attention is given to the fi nancing of sport, with a special focus on household expenditures on sport as well as the economic equivalence of sport volunteerism. Third, the sport policies of the three communities are shortly described. In the last section, the focus is on the active involvement in sport. Here sport participation rates and trends are studied along with the issue of social stratifi cation. Due to the specifi c political structuration of Belgium, the present study mainly focuses on the sport system and sport participation in the northern part of this country, that is, Flanders. Future research is needed to present a more complete study of sport policy and sport participation for the country as a whole.
