It was a pleasure to be invited to be a part of the Unity Project, highlighting the achievements of Polish-born Australians who have made a significant contribution to Australian business, art, science and society. The below-attached podcast contains several individual stories. Each story speaks of a journey of migration, career building and making Australia home. These are our stories – each contributing to the story of unity.
Polish-born individuals have a long history in the story of Australia, dating back to 1696 when ten citizens joined a Dutch exploration expedition. Small pockets of migration have continued throughout the years with a more substantial community development after World War II.
2022 marks fifty years of diplomatic relations between Poland and Australia and notable professionals are being honoured for their work across many industries. Join us in celebrating their achievements.
