Guided by Sugar (Belgium)
In Brussels approximately 18,000 lobbyists inform EU policy makers on every issue that may be of interest to either European businesses or NGOs. In the political arena of the European Parliament decisions are made on diverse issues that are of vital importance to the European sugar industry. Whether these decisions involve sugar and public health, the opening of the EU market for alternative sweeteners or trade measures protecting European farmers and industries, in Brussels the stakes are high. Belgian photographer Carl De Keyzer set out to peer into the formal and informal world of the sugar lobby.
