Resistance in Belgium aims to centralise data about more than 200,000 persons who were (possibly) involved in various forms of resistance activities in Belgium during the Second World War. In the wake of the war, their engagement led to the creation by public authorities and by the Resistance movements themselves of a significant number of personal files about the recognition of their status as resistance fighters by the Belgian state. The data are derived from these files (or preliminary forms and files) and refer to the corresponding archive fonds.
The database also contains information about the resistance movements and networks, and related archive fonds. Furthermore, these information were matched, wherever possible, with the correpsondent Wikidata identifiers of resistance fighters, thereby enriching the data with input from external sources.
