The LVSV (Liberaal Vlaams StudentenVerbond (Dutch) or Liberal Flemish Students' Association) unites all Dutch speaking libertarian students in Belgium. The values they uphold are individual freedom, freedom of speech, free trade and human rights, with focus on the non-aggression principle. The LVSV opposes big government in any meaning (both right-wing and left-wing) and always tries to stay open minded. They are an independent organisation, not affiliated to any political party. The LVSV organises political activities (debates, discussions,…) and typical student activities (visiting pubs, cantus,…) in five cities: Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, Hasselt and Leuven. The current national president is Glenn L'hoëst. Famous former members are Guy Verhofstadt, Bart De Wever, Willy De Clercq and Karel De Gucht.
