What is Ttabamiruka?

The term "Ttabamiruka" refers to an annual event held by the Buganda community, which serves as a platform for discussions and decision-making on various issues related to the kingdom and its people. The event typically involves leaders, experts, and members of the community gathering to discuss development, culture, and unity within Buganda.

In 2024, one of the notable Ttabamiruka events is being organized in Scandinavia, specifically focusing on the empowerment of women within the Buganda community. This event, held on August 27, 2024, centers on themes of professional development and strengthening unity among the Buganda diaspora. The event's activities include speeches from experts, cultural exhibitions, and community engagements aimed at fostering progress and cohesion among Buganda women in the region​(
