In a time spirit where collective memory is often reinterpreted, KBAU acknowledges the existence of multiple historical narratives linked to the Belgian colonial period in Central Africa. It believes that the right approach should allow everyone to know the past in all its diversity and avoid the pitfalls of a one-sided view, sometimes incomplete and out of context, which does not contribute to truth nor to understanding between peoples. <\/span><\/p>\n

The deep regret expressed by His Majesty King Philip over the suffering caused by colonisation is an important first step towards improving mutual understanding. However, the URBA-KBAU believes that we should not limit ourselves to only the negative aspects, but also recognise the positive aspects that have ultimately characterised the current relations between Belgium and its former colonies. <\/p>\n


URBA-KBAU wants to draw attention to the multiplicity of colonial memories and encourage a process of reflection that encompasses all facets of this period. It is necessary to avoid any preconceived view of history that would continue to fuel resentment in a society that wants to be diverse as well as respectful of everyone’s contributions. <\/span><\/p>\n

With the intention of promoting constructive dialogue and close cooperation, the URBA-KBAU has assigned itself the following tasks :<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To promote a plural and serene knowledge of colonial history, revealing both its failures and common successes ;<\/li>\n
  2. To defend the honour and dignity of the peoples of Belgium, Congo, Rwanda and Burundi;<\/li>\n
  3. To exercise zero tolerance towards discrimination and racism ;<\/li>\n
  4. To encourage mutual respect and friendship between Belgians and people from Central African countries; while supporting integration and better coexistence between communities ;<\/li>\n
  5. To pursue the expansion of institutional and personal contacts through joint achievements and initiatives that play to the benefit of both sides.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    A call for commitment<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

    The URBA-KBAU does not depend in any way on political support or subsidies. It therefore appeals to all those who endorse its aims to support them and thus strengthen its capacity for action. It invites everyone to join its constructive and open approach so that together we can make a positive difference.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    The Cercle Royal Africain was founded on December 7, 1889 and chaired by General Albert Thys, the illustrious creator of the Bas-Congo railroad linking Matadi to L\u00e9opoldville.
    \nThe association had two aims: to foster patriotism among its members, and to develop a center for union, exchange of ideas, documentation and enjoyment.
    \nIt met regularly at 5 Place Royale, in the Globe tavern. At the celebration of its 50th anniversary in 1939, the association had 651 members.<\/p>\n

    On 1 June 1951, the Union Royale Coloniale Belge was founded in Brussels as an umbrella for the circles of friends of veterans that had already sprung up in various cities in the country, as well as the associations that were to follow later.<\/p>\n

    The Union Royale Coloniale Belge was founded with the generous cooperation, first of all of H.M. King Albert I who personally donated a substantial contribution, then of powerful commercial companies, and finally with an official contribution from the then Government. Minister of State Auguste Beernaert, who had been one of King Leopold II’s most loyal supporters, had an exceptional appropriation entered in the 1912 budget in favour of the new association that became the owner of the building located Rue de Stassart, 34 in Brussels.
    Among the founders, apart from Auguste Beernaert, we find, among others, the names of Jules Renkin, Minister of Colonies, the Minister of Justice de Landsheere, the people’s representative Louis Franck, who became Minister of Colonies from 1918 to 1924, and the people’s representative Frans Van Cauwelaert. The main governing body of the Royal Belgian Colonial Union was chaired by Auguste Bernaert and later by G\u00e9rard Cooreman, president of the Chamber of Representatives. <\/p>\n

    The association had several objectives in mind ; first, propaganda in favour of colonial action, in addition, the organisation of conferences, the launching of an information service and of an African library, the setting up of preparatory courses for all those aiming at colonial careers, for whom no education was organised.<\/p>\n

    As the umbrella organisation of the colonial clubs, it looked after the collective actions of the associations and provided them with premises for their activities. On 18 December 1912, the Royal Belgian Colonial Circle left the Place Royale to also move to de rue de Stassart. <\/p>\n

    While 11 clubs formed the Union Royale Coloniale Belge in 1912, by its 25th anniversary in 1937 it had 52 members. It had organised 2782 conferences, developed a library that numbered more than 7,000 works, many of which were the last vestiges of lost collections or out-of-print editions. Colonial preparation courses had been attended by 4264 students among whom 88 per cent were surveyors. <\/p>\n

    After the independencies in the 1960s, the clubs incorporated cooperators and the association then changed its name to “Union Royale Belge pour les pays d\u2019Outremer” for short (UROME)<\/p>\n

    In 2019, under the impetus of the Board of Directors, the Association’s new management set up its first summer university to reflect on its future and ensure its survival. It is after a democratic and participatory process that the Association was renamed ” Union Royale Belgo Africaine – Royal Belgian African Union ” (URBA-KBAU for short). <\/p>\n

    This revision of the statutes with a new name leans towards the evolution of relations between Belgium, Congo, Rwanda and Burundi and a new forward-looking basic approach, taking into account the role, sensitivities and growing place of diasporas in these relations. URBA-KBAU is now also open to associations of Congolese, Rwandans and Burundians who wish to support it in its mission to strengthen cooperation and friendship between these countries with respect for shared history and the hope of a positive future for all parties. <\/p>\n
