IMAQA
IMAQA est une association belge qui relie science, aventure et éducation. Sa mission est de soutenir la recherche scientifique sur le changement climatique dans des environnements extrêmes, principalement polaires, et de transformer ces expéditions en outils d’éducation pour les jeunes.
Notre vision est de rendre la science concrète, accessible, porteuse de sens, et excitante, tout en encourageant les jeunes à s’intéresser aux géosciences, à mieux comprendre les enjeux environnementaux et à croire en leur potentiel. Nos activités s’articulent autour de trois axes : (1) la collecte de données scientifiques sur le terrain en collaboration avec des chercheurs, (2) la production de documentaires et contenus de vulgarisation, et (3) le développement d’ateliers et ressources pédagogiques alignés sur les programmes scolaires de la FWB.
Inclusive Games
Inclusive Games — games as a bridge between all audiences
Just like humour, games have this unique power to bring people together: young and old, colleagues and strangers, people from all walks of life. It’s a universal language that makes it possible to approach sometimes sensitive topics — diversity, inclusion, living together — with lightness, curiosity, and without judgement.
At Inclusive Games, I design games and facilitate workshops made for all audiences: families looking for a good time, groups of friends seeking new experiences, as well as companies wanting to bring their values to life beyond theory. Every tool is designed so that learning happens almost without anyone noticing — through play, exchange, and laughter.
My approach is deeply caring and respectful of everyone’s identity. Whether you’re here to discover a game with your family, try an activity with friends, or take part in a team awareness workshop, my goal stays the same: for everyone to feel free to be fully themselves, and to take part with confidence.
Deeply convinced of the power of collective intelligence, I test my creations with as diverse an audience as possible, and actively involve my testers in continuously improving my games — for experiences that truly speak to everyone.
Come try it out, connect, and leave with a fresh perspective on diversity — all while having fun.

La Garde des Brumes
L’escrime ludique est une pratique naissante de combat à l’arme en mousse latexée. Elle est directement inspirée des combats que l’on rencontre dans les jeux de rôle grandeur nature (GN). Elle mêle technique, jeu et sécurité, et peut se pratiquer aussi bien en duel qu’en groupe, avec une grande variété d’armes comme l’épée, le bouclier, la deux mains, la lance, etc.
Cette pratique tire un certain nombre de mouvements, techniques et noms de techniques de différents sports de tout genre.
Notre approche de la pratique se fait avec l’idée que toutes et tous peuvent apprendre à jouer avec des épées en mousse. Nos animateurs sont là pour apporter un cadre, une sécurité et notre expérience de l’escrime ludique.
Le Cabinet de L’Étrange
Le Cabinet de L’Étrange is a two-faceted project: The first is to create an immersive place where visitors will have the opportunity to admire mythical artefacts from all over the world and from a multitude of folklores, as well as the opportunity to practice their talents as an investigator of the occult to solve the mysteries related to these relics!
The second is to bring together several Belgian artists for a common purpose: Make our visitors dream while at the same time offering them a challenge adapted to their level! Visit the stand of the Cabinet de L’Étrange to discover what Delphine, Lyst, Guillaume and Navid have concocted for you!
Les Jeux d’Eden
Our name reflects our ambition: “play” in all its forms. Diplomatic or economic games that weave sustainable partnerships between the two shores of the Mediterranean. Cultural and festive games that celebrate shared heritage. Traditional board games that, in Belgian schools, care homes, businesses, and institutions, rebuild connections and foster harmonious coexistence.
At Les Jeux d’Éden, we believe that play is the most powerful bond: between people, between generations, between continents.
The non-profit organization (ASBL) Les Jeux d’Eden is an event agency specializing in economic and cultural cooperation, and social connection between Europe and Africa.
Through cross-cutting events, we promote cooperation between the two continents, bringing together institutions, entrepreneurs, and investors.
Our hybrid dimension immerses us in the cultural universe of board games, which serves as a catalyst for harmonious coexistence and social cohesion in Belgium.
