Caritas Catholica Belgica, also known as Caritas in Belgium (Dutch: Caritas in België, French: Caritas en Belgique) is a Belgian confederation of Catholic relief, development and social service organizations operating in Flanders and Wallonia. The organization used to group about 1,100 institutions active in healthcare in Belgium.

History

Caritas Catholica Belgica was founded in 1932 at the initiative of the Belgian bishops as the Katholieke Dienst voor Hygiëne en Hulpbetoon. In 1935, the name became Caritas Catholica Belgica.

In 1982, the organization was split into Caritas Vlaanderen (Caritas Catholica Flanders, Flanders) and Caritas en Communauté Française et Germanophone (Caritas Catholica Wallonia, Wallonia) and Caritas International as a national organization.
