About Buurthuis Mandelaplein

Buurthuis Mandelaplein is located in the heart of the Transvaal district in The Hague and has a central role when it comes to connection and participation of residents in the district. In broad neighborhood zones, we are strengthening cooperation with (self-)organisations, local residents and the municipality. The emphasis of our activities is on Transvaal-South.

Our mission is to strengthen the self-reliance, participation and development of the residents, as well as to promote social cohesion and safety in the Transvaal district. We facilitate and stimulate activities that are carried out with and by the residents. In addition, we offer an extensive range of activities in the field of (language) education, sports and relaxation, on a demand-driven basis.

We strengthen the position of Transvalers in society and their socio-economic opportunities. We empower them and focus on empowerment & talent development. In addition, we connect target groups, stimulate intercultural encounters and improve the relationship between various groups of residents. In short: we strengthen self-reliance & talent development (individually) and promote social cohesion and safety.
