Meet creativity in your region
Do you also feel that contagious dynamism that hangs in the Kortrijk region? That's not surprising, because creativity and problem-solving are simply in the DNA of the region. That is exactly why the Kortrijk region became part of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network in 2017. This is a worldwide network of 246 cities that focus on creativity to create a more liveable, even more pleasant environment for their inhabitants. Kortrijk was awarded a prize in the field of design. The recognition is due to everyone who contributes creatively in the region, in whatever way.
