About ICCR
Building bridges, creating community since 2019
Building a Home Away From Home
ICCR was founded in 2019 with a simple yet powerful mission: to create a supportive community for Indians living in the Czech Republic. What started as a small group of friends helping each other navigate life abroad has grown into one of the largest and most active Indian communities in Central Europe.
Our founders recognized the challenges faced by Indians relocating to Czech Republic - from cultural adjustment to practical matters like finding accommodation, understanding local systems, and maintaining connections to Indian culture. They envisioned a community that would serve as a bridge between two beautiful cultures.
Today, ICCR serves over 1000+ members across the Czech Republic, organizing cultural events, providing support services, and fostering meaningful connections. We have celebrated numerous festivals, supported families during emergencies, and built lasting friendships that transcend borders.
