The Uganda Muslim Supreme Council (UMSC) National Chairperson, Hon. Prof. Dr Muhammadi Lubega Kisambira, has arrived in Belgium for a four-day working visit aimed at exploring partnerships and strengthening the institution’s international development engagements.
Shortly after his arrival, Prof. Kisambira paid a courtesy visit to Uganda’s Ambassador to Belgium, Germany and Luxembourg, Her Excellency Mirjam Blank, at the Ugandan Embassy in Brussels on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. During the meeting, Prof. Kisambira gave the ambassador an overview of the UMSC, describing it as the umbrella body responsible for governing and coordinating the affairs of the Muslim community in Uganda.
The two held discussions on potential areas of collaboration between the UMSC and international development partners, with particular emphasis on initiatives to empower women and young people, strengthen institutional capacity and promote sustainable socio-economic transformation.
The discussions explored opportunities for translating such partnerships into tangible development interventions that would benefit Muslim communities.
Prof. Kisambira is expected to undertake additional engagements with various stakeholders during the remainder of his official visit.
