Abstract

The project involved the pre-publication of the book 'How much income do households need to make ends meet? Reference budgets for adequate social participation in Flanders and Brussels' (in Dutch). The pre-publication was financed by federal State secretary for poverty reduction, Elke Sleurs. The book builds on the results of recently completed projects on reference budgets, and brings together up to date insights into the minimum resources required for adequate social participation in Belgium.
