Groen (political Party)
Groen (; ), founded as Agalev, is a green Flemish political party in Belgium. The main pillars of the party are social justice, human rights, and ecologism. Its French-speaking equivalent is Ecolo; the two parties maintain close relations with each other. History Agalev In 1979, the green party was founded by name of "Agalev", an acronym of "Anders Gaan Leven" ("''Towards Different Living''"). During the eighties, the party was known for being against nuclear weapons, and for being pro-Europe. In 1992 Agalev was asked to support a constitutional change called the Sint-Michiels agreement, which would make Belgium a federation. This change required a two-third majority, so the majority needed to convince some parties of the opposition to proceed. Both Agalev and Ecolo agreed, in exchange for a tax on bottles, the first ecotax in Belgium.
