The FPS Public Health rewarded for its innovation in Belgium
The Federal Public Service (FPS) Public Health was recently honored at the Federal Innovation Award 2026 ceremony. This annual event celebrates the most creative ideas and effective projects within the Belgian administration. This year, the health sector particularly impressed the jury with its ability to modernize.
One of the most remarkable distinctions was awarded to Carolien Sonck, who won the "Possibility Manager" award. This title rewards her exceptional work in transforming theoretical ideas into concrete solutions. Her role is essential for encouraging positive change and facilitating the implementation of new projects within the health department.
Innovation in public services has become a priority for the Belgian government. By developing new working methods and using modern technological tools, the FPS Public Health seeks to offer a faster and more efficient service to citizens. These awards prove that the administration can be flexible and forward-looking, even in a sector as complex as health.
These awards mark an important milestone for the staff of the FPS Public Health. They show that collective efforts to improve the Belgian healthcare system are recognized at the highest federal level. This recognition also encourages other public services to continue their innovation efforts for the well-being of the entire population.
