Information on content and structure |
| Content: | The archival records do not so much refer to Vanistendael's trade union career, but above all to the positions he held from 1960, in particular to his activities in the field of development cooperation. For example, extensive and well-documented files are available about the organizations Humanum and Cooperation and Solidarity (creation of scholarships for Third World students, also the assignment of the organization Promotio Humana), about numerous contacts in developing countries, with Belgian and foreign Third World organizations. (Misereor, Adveniat, NCOS, Broederlijk Delen, etc.), with the ecclesiastical hierarchy, etc. Hundreds of contacts with, among others, project managers, trade union leaders, intellectuals from the Third World, financiers and development workers resulted in an impressive amount of correspondence.
In addition, several collections shed light on Vanistendael's commitment to Justitia et Pax and his frequent contacts with organizations such as Amnesty International, Pax Christi, Oxfam, Kerk In Nood-Oostpriesterhulp, etc., his assignment to and contacts with KU Leuven and his membership of the Council. of Advice for Development Cooperation. |
