Our mission is to educate and spread the knowledge about the Middle East and its culture, as we believe it is important to educate Polish citizens about history, cultural heritage, Arabic language, as well as the history of Polish Muslims. With an overall objective to improve cross-cultural understanding, integration and communication between “them and us”, we invite Poles to engage in our on-going activities.
Our flagship event is organized on the yearly basis "Emirati Film Review in Poland". So far we have organized two editions in 2016 and 2017. The review has a honorary patronage of the Embassy of United Arab Emirates in Warsaw.
