In August 2025, from 1 to 7 August, the European and International Conferences of the Democratic Education Communities(IDEC) converged in Belgium under the banner IDEC@EUDEC 2025. The venue was De Kluis, a youth residence in the forested area of Meerdaalwoud, in Sint-Joris-Weert, near Leuven.
This marked the first time either of the two conferences has been hosted in Belgium. QUEST was proud to be one of the official organizers of this conference, alongside Orvita, CollectiveUp, Kenny Vranken, and Sigrid Delmotte contributing actively to its organization, programming, and overall vision. Our involvement reflected our core commitment to advancing equitable and participatory models of education.
