WELCOME TO

POLAND KANNADIGARU

Poland Kannadigaru is a vibrant community dedicated to preserving Karnataka's rich cultural heritage while fostering unity among the Kannada-speaking diaspora in Poland. This introduction traces the origins, milestones, and achievements of Poland Kannadigaru and its contributions to both the Kannada and broader Indian communities in Poland. Our story begins in 2014 with a small group of Kannada-speaking expatriates who felt the need to create a platform to celebrate their shared heritage, language, and traditions. The catalyst was a casual gathering where attendees realized the potential of forming an organized group to connect and support each other. From these modest beginnings, a vibrant community blossomed. Today, we have over 1,000 active members from cities like Warsaw, Krakow, Wroclaw, Lodz, Lublin, Poznan and Gdansk. Our members include students, researchers, business person, engineers, directors, and doctors.

Our community has grown steadily, drawn together by friendship and shared traditions. Occasional gatherings evolved into regular events by celebrating various Indian festivals. We also host "Besige aata koota,” featuring BBQs, folk games, group activities, sports activities and other social support programs. We organize workshops on traditional Kannada arts and seminars on Karnataka’s history. We collaborate with other Indian associations and  NGOs in Poland, participating in and organizing events, promoting mutual respect and understanding. Beyond cultural celebrations, our community offers assistance with housing, education, healthcare, and navigating life in a foreign land. Through our "Mussanje Maathu" monthly program, we foster knowledge-sharing, support and empowerment. We also strengthen bonds through activities like Kannada movie screenings and sports events, which foster teamwork. We believe in giving back to the community and have consistently supported individuals in times of need and crisis.
