The Brussels Binder is very excited to share our new partnership with Novya! Novya is a Brussels-based consultancy which focuses on supporting non-profit organisations.

“There is real power when like-minded organisations join forces to advance a shared cause—and this partnership between The Brussels Binder and Novya is a testament to that. Democracy thrives when women are not just present, but presenting, not just in the room, but at the table, not just in the audience, but on the stage. Representation isn’t a luxury—it’s a democratic imperative. Today, we join forces to ensure women’s voices are not only heard, but actively shape Europe’s future across every policy field. Because inclusive panels lead to inclusive policies—and that’s the Europe we’re building.”

Emőke Péter, President of the Brussels Binder

“I’m delighted about this partnership between us and The Brussels Binder, because we share a simple belief: Europe does better when more diverse voices are heard. Since 2017, The Brussels Binder has offered a practical, positive response to a stubborn problem: women remain underrepresented as speakers in Brussels. After more than two decades leading associations and championing nonprofit excellence, I know how much talent is overlooked and how hard it can be to be heard. The Brussels Binder invites us all to change this. That’s why we’re pleased to provide not only a new home, but also pro bono association management support to The Brussels Binder’s brilliant team of volunteers. In return, we’re eager to learn from their expertise so we can better help our clients embed diversity and inclusion for more representative, and therefore more effective, EU impact. This partnership shows how mission‑driven organisations can work together as allies — achieving better results while living our shared values of inclusion, collaboration, innovation and impact.”
