India Association BonnIndia Association Bonn, (IAB) is a non-profit organisation based in Bonn. This Association is dedicated to Indian cultural activities. About 5000 Indian reside in Bonn and Suburbs of Bonn, primarily occupied in high-tech, engineering, medical, IT-Technology, UN and WHO diplomats and business professions. IAB was planed in the late 1980’s but was established in April 2006. This is the only organisation in the area that represents the Indian cultural activities. IAB is the only link available connecting the Indians back to their roots. This Association was established for the promotion of German-Indian cooperation and intensive friendship. IAB celebrates several tours to different parts of Europe. In the last years IAB has hosted diverse and interesting events including: Friendship Dinners, Lohri, Deepawali, Dusharra Celebrations, Holi Celebrations, New Year’s Party, Independence Day, various Picnics, various BBQ evenings and many other activities. Beyond the regular functions IAB celebrates Besakhi / Vesakhi and every year. As the Indian population is growing, the role IAB is playing in the Bonn area will continue to be of great importance. One day our children will be proud of this association to have given them not only the local German language and English language but also given them the cultural necessity their mother tongue Hindi and Punjabi to hold them strongly to their roots. On 1st Nov. 2008 we had another Diwali Function. If you go through the program, you will find that the second generation Indians had planned and organised this show. The show ended with lots of appreciation for the new generation and to the parents to guide the children to live in both the cultures maintaining the roots. Since then the second and third generation join hands and plan the major events. Again in Jan. 2010 IAB planed another “Mega Event” “60 Years of Indian Republic “ The entrance had to be closed as the capacity of the hall reached more than 120%. Since then IAB has celebrated many major events, there have been many VIP and TV-Channels visiting us. |
