About Belong
Belong is a non-profit organization that builds bridges between new and established Swedes. We create conditions for people with different backgrounds to enter the labor market, participate actively in society and improve their living conditions. We do this through mentoring, meetings and training. We also carry out advocacy work and opinion-forming to engage more people in the work for increased integration.
