Mela Nordic

South Asian cultural organisation

(South Asian art, culture and human rights) 

Mela Nordic, a vibrant South Asian cultural organization dedicated to celebrating art, culture, and human rights. We are a collective of progressive South Asian diaspora members based in the Nordics, united by a shared mission to create an inclusive community that honours our rich cultural heritage while fostering unity and harmony among diverse South Asian groups.

Mela Nordic, we believe in the power of collaboration and solidarity. We actively work alongside local groups and build bridges with other cultures to promote mutual understanding and respect. Our vision is to cultivate a thriving South Asian union where cultural diversity is celebrated, and where mutual respect and understanding form the foundation of our community. We stand firmly against hate and communal divisiveness, striving to uphold human dignity and create a safe space for meaningful dialogue.

Through a variety of initiatives—including talks and discussions on social, cultural, and political issues, music performances, art exhibitions, film screenings, and workshops—we aim to promote South Asian artists, musicians, and thinkers while encouraging cultural exchange and appreciation. We also celebrate the diverse festivals of South Asia, embracing all religions and groups.

Join us in building a stronger, united South Asian community where there is no place for hate. Together, we can lift each other up, find common ground, and celebrate our shared humanity. At Mela Nordic, we believe that we have only one life—let’s make it count by creating a world rooted in respect, understanding, and unity.
