"Human beings are members of a whole
In creation of one essence and soul
If one member is afflicted with pain
Other members uneasy will remain
If you have no sympathy for human pain
The name of human you cannot retain."
Saadi (1210-1291) Persian poet
The Iranian Diaspora Luxembourg (IDL) ASBl, a non-for-profit organization, is a community-driven initiative dedicated to connecting and empowering individuals of Iranian heritage in Luxembourg. We aim to celebrate our rich culture, foster meaningful connections, and promote understanding and collaboration within the diverse fabric of our society. By organizing cultural, educational, and social initiatives, we strive to create a space where our shared values and traditions thrive while embracing the opportunities of our adopted home.
Directly after Mahsa Amini’s murder in Iran and aftermath uprising which led to the Woman Life Freedom movement, the Iranian diaspora across the globe was moved and united to amplify the voices of freedom loving Iranians. IDL’s four co-founding members were also driven to create a platform that amplifies the voices of Iranians and creating opportunities to collaborate and partner with other associations in Grande Duchy of Luxembourg.
