🫶 When young people from Poland and Ukraine come together through UNICEF UPSHIFT programme, they do more than learn new skills. They share ideas, solve local challenges and build friendships that help them feel part of one community.

💬 “For us, it is more than just a skills workshop – it has become a bridge between cultures,” shares Teresa, a music teacher and UPSHIFT mentor.

For teenagers from Ukraine, moments like these can bring something deeply important: a sense of safety, kindness and the reassuring feeling that they are welcome in Poland. 🤝 💙💛

“Poland. Mission Confidence” is a story about Poland built on authenticity and the experience of people who, every day, co-create its image around the world.

🎬 The film was made for the Robert Dobrzycki Foundation and brought together representatives of business, diplomacy, new technologies and media. Yet it is not institutions that matter most here, but the stories and perspectives of people who present a modern, credible face of Poland.

🇵🇱 It is a country that attracts through quality of life, safety, culture and dynamic growth. But above all, it is a country of people – their work, values, and everyday actions that together form a coherent image of a Poland that is competent, open, and confident.

🔗 The full film is also available on the Robert Dobrzycki Foundation’s YouTube channel ➡️ https://youtu.be/b138V4_R9bI?si=GUbJTBJtbhj7nSqK

🚴‍♀️ 3 June marks World Bicycle Day – a global celebration of cycling as a healthy, sustainable, and accessible means of transport.

💪 This year, we cycled across Ottawa under the theme “Ride Together, Grow Stronger”.

👩‍🎓 We were delighted to welcome students from the Conseil des écoles catholiques du Centre-Est joining us in recognition of International Children's Day, celebrated on 1 June as we combined this two UN events. Youths had the opportunity to take part in a raffle and win wonderful prizes generously provided by the embassies of United Arab Emirates, Vietnam, Austria and Spain.

🇵🇱 World Bicycle Day is celebrated annually thanks to the efforts of Professor Leszek Sibilski, a Polish-American sociologist and activist whose initiative led to its official recognition by the United Nations in 2018.

With Poland being one of the signatory countries of the UNESCO initiative ,,Bicycle for All: Bicycle for Sustainable and Healthy Lifestyles” we were pleased to be joined by representatives of the other signatory countries: Vietnam, the United Arab Emirates, Austria.

📃 We were honoured to receive a proclamation handed to Ambassador Witold Dzielski by the Deputy Mayor of the City of Ottawa, Jeff Leiper and Councillor Teresa Kavanagh, declaring 3 June 2026 as World Bicycle Day in Ottawa. Notably, Canada Capital city was the first one in the world to officially recognise World Bicycle Day.

🌳 Our sincere appreciation goes to the National Capital Commission, represented by CEO Tobi Nussbaum, for its stewardship of the region’s extensive network of pathways, parks, and green spaces, which make events such as this possible.

🤝 We extend our heartfelt thanks to all of this year’s partners and supporters for their commitment to promoting cycling, active transportation, and community engagement. Special thanks to the European Union National Institutes for Culture and Spain, which currently holds the chairmanship of EUNIC in Ottawa.

🚲 We would also like to recognise Vélo Canada Bikes and Bike Ottawa, whose advocacy and educational initiatives continue to advance cycling and active transportation across our communities.

🌟 Thank you to everyone who joined us. We look forward to seeing you on Ottawa’s roads, pathways, and trails!

Honouring the veterans of Monte Cassino, reflecting on their sacrifice, and remembering those who fought for freedom were at the heart of a commemorative ceremony held at the National Field of Honour in Pointe-Claire, Québec, on 31 May.

🇵🇱🤝🇨🇦 Ambassador Witold Dzielski spoke about the courage, sacrifice, and brotherhood in arms of those who served, as well as the enduring bonds forged between Poles and Canadians through shared service and a common commitment to freedom. Together with Poland’s Consul General Izabela Fabjańska-Potapczuk and Military Attaché Captain (Navy) Paweł Podgórny, we paid tribute to the Polish servicemen and women whose service and sacrifice continue to inspire future generations.

A commemorative bench dedicated to the memory of the Battle of Monte Cassino and the Polish veterans resting in the cemetery was unveiled, an initiative of the Polish War Veterans Society of Marshal J. Piłsudski.

Our sincere thanks go to the Last Post Fund - Fonds du Souvenir for its stewardship of the National Field of Honour and its unwavering commitment to preserving the memory of those who served.

We also thank all those engaged in making the event a success, as well as the participants, including the Honourable Francis Scarpaleggia, Speaker of the House of Commons, the Canadian Armed Forces, The Royal Canadian Legion, Service de police de la Ville de Montréal - SPVM, clergy, and members of Polonia organisations. The presence of the centenarian veterans made this commemoration especially meaningful.
