Woluwe-Saint-Lambert: a residential university municipality with a medical profile

Woluwe-Saint-Lambert is both a residential and an academic municipality. Its UCLouvain Woluwe campus welcomes thousands of students in medicine, pharmacy and health sciences, a significant proportion of whom come from abroad. Doctors and pharmacists trained outside Belgium who wish to practise in the country must have their qualifications recognised through the INAMI and ARES, which mandatorily requires sworn translations of their degrees and certificates.

Saint-Luc Hospital (UCL), one of Belgium's largest university hospital centres, receives patients and healthcare professionals from around the world. Medical records in foreign languages, informed consent forms for non-French-speaking patients, and expert reports in the context of legal proceedings all generate a constant demand for specialist medical translations.
