Researching &
protecting Belgium’s
paleontological heritage

Palaeontologica Belgica is a scientific research organisation that actively promotes, supports, and protects Belgian palaeontology in all its facets. Its founding members come from different Belgian geo-scientific organisations and work project-wise on various palaeontological initiatives.

We strive towards a fruitful cooperation with (inter)national and regional research institutions, the academic world and other organisations. In addition, we give a great deal of attention to 'citizen science', ethics and open science, as well as outreach and education to the general public.
