Poland in Tanzania

As part of the 2024 edition of the “ZIFF Goes Mainland” Film Festival, held from October 22 to November 21, 2024, films from African countries and ten European nations, including Poland and Ukraine, were presented.

Consul of the Republic of Poland, Wojciech Łysak, visited the site of a development project run by Southern Tanzania Elephant Program (STEP), with the support from the Polish Embassy in Dar es Salaam. The project’s primary objectives are to foster peaceful coexistence between humans and elephants in the Kilombero Valley and to enhance the livelihoods of local entrepreneurs. The initiative is funded by Polish Aid.

As one of the leaders among EU countries in food production, including egg and the poultry production markets, Poland shares its expertise with Tanzanian poultry sector stakeholders. We believe that by sharing our expertise we may help to accelerate the development of the poultry industry in Tanzania to further advance the latter’s economic prosperity.

The Consul of the Republic of Poland Wojciech Łysak visited the sites of a development project supported by the Polish Embassy in Dar es Salaam with funds from Polish Aid in Magombera Forest.

On November 8, our Embassy hosted a reception to celebrate the 106th anniversary of Poland regaining its independence. We invited Poles living in Tanzania and Tanzanian graduates of Polish universities to join us in the celebration.

To mark All Saints' Day, the Embassy's chargée d'affairs a.i. Katarzyna Sobiecka and the Head of Administration and Finance Edgar Klusa laid flowers on the graves of compatriots at Kinondoni Cemetery in Dar es Salaam. The Consul of the Republic of Poland Wojciech Łysak visited the Polish necropolis in Ifunda near Iringa, and the Vice Consul Krystyna Fatyga visited the graves of Poles in Bigwa near Morogoro.

We invite you to the Seminar: Innovative Technologies in Poultry Farming and Meat Production. The event is addressed to poultry farmers, investors and individuals involved in the poultry industry who wish to expand their knowledge on new technologies and methodologies in the sector as well as establish new business contacts.

Today, at the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Dar es Salaam, we had the pleasure of hosting students of one of the primary schools in Dar es Salaam. The meeting was an opportunity to read together the English-language edition of one of the most popular Polish comic books for children.

Health problems, lack of appropriate education and professional skills hindering them from gaining employment as well as social exclusion are still major challenges faced by people with albinism in Tanzania. The project ‘Better future for people with albinism in Tanzania’ financed by Polish Aid is primarily aimed at giving such persons equal chances of living a better life.
