Kamino’s launch of the VIA platform highlights a growing trend: Belgian youth increasingly turn to the internet for answers, including on spiritual and life questions. This shift reflects broader changes in how young people engage with faith and beliefs online.
- Kamino lanceerde platform voor jongeren online
- 45% nieuwe gelovigen starten online geloof
- Manosphere beïnvloedt jongeren met christelijke politiek
- Jongeren zoeken antwoorden op levensvragen internet
- VIA biedt tegenwicht tegen verkeerde informatie
Director Sofi Van Ussel pointed out on 2025-07-24 10:29:00 that nearly half of new believers in France first encounter religion through digital channels. Meanwhile, movements like the manosphere and certain political groups, often from the US, use Christianity to justify their views, sometimes misleading young seekers.
How can Belgium ensure young people receive balanced information amid this digital landscape? VIA aims to provide that much-needed counterbalance.
Why does this matter for Belgium’s younger generation? The internet shapes beliefs more than ever, but not all sources are trustworthy. VIA’s approach addresses this by:
- Providing fact-based, accessible spiritual guidance online
- Countering extremist narratives linked to politicized Christianity
- Supporting young Belgians in their personal search for meaning
As digital influence grows, Belgian educators and community leaders should encourage young people to engage critically with online content. Will VIA inspire more initiatives that empower youth to navigate faith and life questions responsibly?
