About BRALIM
A welcoming community where Ugandans in the Netherlands build friendships, preserve culture, support one another and contribute positively to Dutch society.
A non-profit community, built on belonging
BRALIM is a non-profit community organisation connecting Ugandans in the Netherlands. We bring together families, students, professionals, entrepreneurs, young people and friends of Uganda through community programmes, cultural activities, networking opportunities and charitable initiatives.
