Belgians can no longer access traditional or classical homeopathy - and theyre not happy! A recent ECCH report describes how an unrepresentative Belgian Government Commission has effectively disenfranchised the Belgian people by removing their access to traditional and well-trained homeopathic treatment. The ECCH says in part, This practically reduces the practice of homeopathy to clinical homeopathy based only on a medical diagnosis, and leaves no room for the holistic and individualised approach of homeopathy that was originally meant to be the ‘added value’ of integrating CAM practices in health care...This reactionary piece of legislation stands in direct contrast to the far more constructive and progressive piece of legislation introduced in Portugal in 2013 that regulates 7 CAM therapies including homeopathy, setting high standards for their education and practice. (Lei 71/2013). It is ECCHs view that this unjust execution of the Colla Law must be fought and overturned. To do this we are supporting the call of our Belgian colleagues for financial support to build a legal fighting fund.
