  2. Each participant pays either a 10 euro (if you are joining the central event in Antwerp) or 5 euro (if you are making your own route) registration fee.

Vluchtelingenwerk Vlaanderen vzw uses the registration fee for the organization costs, logistics, provision and medical framework for the participants. It also includes insurance covering the participants against physical injuries during the trip. We make an exception for asylum seekers and refugees: If they contact us or check that when they join a team of stappers, they can participate for free.

  5. Each participant acknowledges the risks associated with participating in a 10, 20 or 40 km journey. Each participant declares that it is his own responsibility to determine whether he is fit and healthy enough to participate in the Refugee walk.

  6. A few weeks before the Refugee walk the participants and supporters will be informed of the mandatory and recommended items to take along on the tour.

  7. The deadline to register is midnight on Sunday, September 18th. By then we must have received your registration fee.

  8. Each participant will be automatically registered for the newsletter by e-mail from the Refugee walk. Each participant will receive updates and information about the Refugee walk at regular intervals. Unsubscribe at any time.

 

Donations

  1. Each team is committed to collect at least 100 euro per participant for Vluchtelingenwerk Vlaanderen vzw. If a team fails to get that amount, the team is not allowed to start.

We will send it by post for April of the following year and use your address details. If you do not want a tax certificate, please let us know at giften@vluchtelingenwerk.be. The registration fee is not a gift and does not count toward the tax certificate.
