«Brussels Dialogue» is an international youth dialogue platform, created in 2019 by the Russian House Brussels-Europe.

The first forum took place on 26 October 2019 and gathered more than 300 participants. The event aroused great interest among European and Belgian youth. Topics covered included: academic diplomacy, public diplomacy, economic future, new technologies.

In 2020, in the year of the 75th anniversary of Victory and the end of the Second World War and the 75th anniversary of the United Nations, the second forum "Brussels Dialogue" was held on 9-10 October 2020 (in online/ "hybrid" format). The Forum was dedicated to the preservation of historical memory, as well as to the role of international cooperation within the UN and the Council of Europe and the role of youth in the 21st century to ensure and develop world peace established after World War II.

The online format of the event allowed it to reach a large audience: more than 5,000 views on social media, an audience reach of more than 25,000 accounts. More than 200 participants from 40 countries registered for the event.

The Forum will explore Russian and European practices in the implementation of the SDGs, especially those related to the themes of affordable education, health care, environmental protection and combating climate change, and will be a call to action for young people.

The main goal of the Forum is to promote dialogue between young people from Russia and European countries, and creation of a common cultural, scientific, information and educational space, inviting the youth of European countries to cooperate with peers from Russia.
