Statutes
Belgium AISBL Statutes
Parkinson’s Europe is an international non-profit association (AISBL) registered in Brussels (No. d’entreprise: 0465.299.201).
Our organisation is governed by the Belgian Code on Companies and Associations (BCCA) of 23 March 2019.
In November 2025, our General Assembly approved a comprehensive update to our Statutes to ensure full compliance with the mandatory provisions of the BCCA. These updated Statutes modernise our governance structure, enhance administrative transparency, and reinforce our commitment to serving the European Parkinson’s community with the highest standards of integrity.
The most recent version of our Statutes was published in the Annexes to the Belgian State Gazette (Moniteur Belge) in March 2026.
