HISTORY

about us

The Polish Youth Association was established in May 2019. At that time, a group of young emigrants came to the conclusion that it was necessary to create an organization that would unite Polish and Polish diaspora youth from all over the world.

The founder and initiator of the Association is a long-time Polish community activist, young entrepreneur, and chairman of the Youth Committee at the Polish Schools Association, Jakub J. Staniewski. He currently serves as the first president of the organization, working closely with the board and youth living abroad and in Poland to increase youth engagement in activities related to Poland and Polish identity. As the president and founder of the Polish Youth Association, he is a co-creator of important initiatives serving youth and education, such as the "Youth about Poland" conference and many workshops for youth in various fields of culture, art, and business. He is also the youngest member of the prestigious "Outstanding Pole" award committee of the Polish Emblem Promotion Foundation "Teraz Polska."

The inauguration of the Polish Youth Association took place at the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in New York, one of the most prestigious Polish diplomatic missions in the world.
