La Louvière: Walloon industrial city with diverse translation needs
La Louvière's history is inseparable from immigration. The Italian community — originating from Calabria, Sicily and Campania — arrived from the 1920s to work in the coal mines and steelworks. Now in their third and fourth generation, Italian-Belgian families still regularly need translations of Italian notarial deeds, wills and property documents for inheritance and succession procedures. The Moroccan community, which arrived from the 1960s onwards, generates consistent demand for sworn translations of civil status documents for DVZ, the communes of the Centre basin and the Public Service of Wallonia (SPW).
