"There is a gap regarding trade union membership between younger and older age groups in Belgium, according to the European Social Survey 2012. Although this gap between older and younger members is by far smaller than in many other European countries, the Belgian trade unions face similar challenges to attract young people and motivate them to join their organisation. Why is it like that? How do Belgian unions counteract?"
