Who am I ?
- 40 years old; Doctor in Political Science, Master in Public Administration, Master in European Studies; Political adviser; mother of a 16-year-old boy and a 8-month-old baby girl
- other professional experience: a journalist, a marketing director of an international society for youth exchange, a migration consultant, a municipal councillor in my country of origin
- 40 years old, but above all, proud to be the mother of a 16-year-old boy and a 8-month-old baby girl
Why choose me as a councilor ?
I have lived and worked here for 10 years, I got married here, I did my doctorate here and my daughter was born in Etterbeek.
I would be proud to be your municipal councilor. I have the energy and strength to move forward a lot of projects in Etterbeek; to represent and defend you and your family.
Etterbeek deserves a more dynamic and progressive management, a governance WITH you and for you, in all transparency, with a focus on dialogue and listening.
I would be also proud to have the opportunity to represent and defend our large ex-pats’ community in municipal affairs, to build more bridges between us and the local authorities.
Enthusiastic and pro-active, I know how to transfer your concerns at any level, so that our common projects advance.
My priorities for Etterbeek
- Etterbeek: a Human commune for Families.
I will pay particular attention to:
• early childhood (an increase in the number of places in municipal nurseries, construction of new and renovation of the existing playgrounds),
• the youth (improve the availability of sports and cultural activities in terms of places and variety of disciplines; fight against internet and video game addiction; prevention of school dropout),
• the elderly who live isolated (encourage their neighbours to care about them in partnership with associations active in this field),
• all people with reduced mobility (lower pavements at crosswalks).
2. Etterbeek - a better-governed Municipality WITH you and for you in complete transparency and dialogue (simplify and speed up administrative procedures for all residents; broadcast live sessions of the Municipal Council).
3. Etterbeek: a Commune where it is good to live together (create more contacts among neighbours).
I will work to make our neighbourhoods:
• cleaner (declare war on cigarette butts and cans thrown in the streets and green spaces, playgrounds, punish bad public manners),
• safer (cycling with children safely, increasing road safety around schools; ensuring 30 km/h speed limit is respected on local roads )
• quieter (reduce transit traffic in small streets; find new solutions against noise pollution),
• greener (carry out an active policy of greening our neighborhoods; more trees planted, less thoughtless felling of trees),
• more accessible for all (facilitate access for the disabled or parents with strollers),
• more affordable quality housing
You can count on me!
