Anderlecht: Belgium's second-largest municipality
Anderlecht is a Brussels municipality of extraordinary diversity. Its Cureghem neighbourhood and the area around the Abattoirs market are home to Belgium's largest concentration of Moroccan-origin residents, many of whom maintain strong ties with Morocco and regularly need sworn translations of Moroccan civil documents. The sub-Saharan African communities — Congolese, Cameroonian, Guinean, Senegalese — are also strongly present, particularly around the canal area, and are frequently involved in asylum, regularisation or family reunification procedures requiring sworn translations in African languages.
