Also known as "Marcourt’s" decree, the "decree Paysage" of 7 November 2013 modified the structural organization of higher education in the French Community (of Belgium).

These changes affect both the functioning and interactions of higher education stakeholders and the structure and organization of studies.

Until 2014, it was the "Bologna decree” of 23 March 2004 that set the rules and organization of higher education in the French Community.
