Courgette Editions grew from an unconventional seed !
Since 2021, Courgette Editions has been cultivating printed, digital, and audio works that transcend traditional literary norms. It offers intimate perspectives that become political, and introduces alternative viewpoints that challenge established conventions. The press provides space for unconventional imaginations and lived experiences, as well as themes that disrupt stereotypes and societal frameworks?through literature, poetry, art books, and educational tools.
The formats are multiple, but the commitments are constant. Each publication is conceived as an ethical editorial act: local printing, paper from sustainably managed forests, non-toxic inks. Every link in the production chain is fairly compensated. Overproduction of both works and prints is deliberately avoided with a strong emphasis on creating meaning.
In 2025, Courgette Editions signed the charter for the Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence, an initiative led by the Belgian Francophone Book Interprofessional Association (PILEn). Publishing differently also means thinking differently.
Courgette Editions welcomes co-publishing, translation, and partnership opportunities with publishing houses that share its values of sustainability, inclusivity, and engaged creativity. Its authors are eager to see their work resonate across borders?on human, political, and poetic levels.
Finally, Courgette Editions is a member of the French-speaking Belgian Publishers Association and the Association of Singular Publishers. It supports the International Alliance of Independent Publishers. It is also recognized by the Federation Wallonia-Brussels.

Kate'Art Editions is a dynamic Belgian publishing house founded in 2000.
For almost 25 years, its mission has been to make art and culture accessible to the general public,
children and families. Kate'Art Editions sells its books and/or rights worldwide.
It has created several collections, including "Happy Museum!", which follows international cultural events in Europe and the United States,
and a collection of colouring books called "Color Zen".
Other children's books are another way of discovering culture.
Thanks to this new initiative, children have their own access to culture through a series of art books
created and adapted especially for them.

Accommodated by the Province de Hainaut, the Centre is developing a series of activities and is offering a number of services in order to fulfil its main objectives: to help authors in the management of their works, including the distribution and promotion of their publications in the theatrical and literary worlds in Belgium and abroad, as well as the aim of promoting the circulation of playwrights in the context of international exchanges.
Amongst its activities, it in particular manages an active Théâtrothèque which groups together more than 900 manuscripts and works edited by authors of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles.

Le Daily-Bul is an idea, a review (1957-1983) and a publishing house founded by André Balthazar and Pol Bury in La Louvière, in 1957, on the wave of the Cobra movement and Belgian surrealism. Supporters of self-publication, Pol Bury and André Balthazar have published their works in the Daily-Bul review, where you will also find the works of Christian Dotremont, Pierre Alechinsky, Achille Chavée, Jean-Michel Folon and Théodore Koenig.
The catalogue of the publisghin house Le Daily-Bul counts more than three hundred titles. Most offer deluxe editions, and a standard print run rarely does more than a thousand copies. In this innovative production, poetry is king. The collection « Les poquettes volantes » (1965-1979) defines itself as « savoureux zakouskis de l’avant-garde. » Also prominent is derision, with the collection « Le congru et l’incongru », « Livres livres » (L’homme est bon mais le veau est meilleur), and also l’« Archéo-collection » (Contribution à l’étude et à la connaissance du potiron chauve).

Bozon2x is also a website that offers an open blog for unique literary initiatives.

In 2016 was created the Translation and Interpreting Department of the new Faculty of Letters, Translation and Communication (LTC), named Termisti, at the Université libre de Bruxelles (University of Brussels).
As Termisti was not of sufficient size to form a facultative research centre within the folds of this university, it decided, after a period of reflection beginning in 2016, to found a new centre of research, with a wider range of competences. It now welcomes around thirty researching teachers, teachers and doctoral students from all departments of the Faculty LTC, around three main areas of research:
- The science of translation and interpreting;
- The teaching of languages, cultures and literature;
- The workings of languages, and aids to translation.
Termisti will continue along its path as a research group specialised in terminology, likely to bring scientific support to active researchers in the three areas of research at the centre.

Marginales is a Belgian review founded in 1945 by Albert Ayguesparse, a key figure in Belgian literature. Since its beginnings, Marginales has shown itself to be a voice of Belgian literature in the community, the spokesperson of a collective spirit which is the foundation of all literary reviews and particularly this one, which provoked it to open itself up to hugely diverse movements, and give Belgian authors the recognition they were lacking. Marginales had published 229 editions until its closure in 1991. Following a seven year pause, there was a rebirth in 1998 with issue number 230, published regarding Dutroux, whose marked evasion had shocked Belgium and provided the first theme of the newly returned review. Marginales therefore embarked upon its path of regularly publishing 4 issues per year.
