Vivant is a small Belgian liberal party founded by millionaire Roland Duchâtelet. In the regional elections in June 2004, the party formed an strategic alliance with the Flemish Liberals and Democrats or VLD. Both parties are founded on the principle of individualism and can be called liberal. Vivant is more economically liberal and progressive, advocating a basic income for all citizens. By which tax can be shifted from labour to consumption. The VLD does not support this measure.

In the regional elections of 2004, partner VLD lost heavily, dragging Vivant with it to third place among Flemish political parties. Although new interest for Vivant during the elections, the party remains a marginal force in Belgian politics. Vivant is also represented in the German-speaking community of Belgium.
