On Thursday, 12 February 2026, Patrick Deboosere was interviewed on VRT Radio in the programme De wereld van Sofie. The discussion focused on fertility and the desire to have children, including the recent initiative in France where all 29-year-olds will receive a letter encouraging them to think about their plans for children and to make a medical appointment to check for possible fertility issues. The interview also explored whether such campaigns could be effective in Belgium, what other approaches might be considered, and how the decline in birth rates could impact society.
