About Us

The Australian Kashmiri Association (AKAI) is a not for profit organisation established in 2014 with the aim of fostering the cultural identity of Kashmiris within the Australian multicultural environment and contribute to the development of Kashmir.

In view of AKAI’s goal, it seeks to bring Australian Kashmiris together by connecting with Kashmiris across the country and celebrate being Australian with Kashmiri heritage. At the same time, through various initiatives, it lends support to various social and community projects contributing to the welfare of Kashmiris in and outside Kashmir.

If you wish to contact us to get in touch with other Kashmiris in Australia or seeking support for a project related to the welfare of Kashmiris, then please send us an email at info@australiankashmiriassociation.org
