This study explores the complex and dynamic relationship between cultural heritage and migration, focusing on the Polish diaspora in Argentina. Migration reshapes identities and cultural landscapes, prompting migrants to preserve and reinterpret their heritage as a means of negotiating new social realities. The Polish community in Argentina, established since the 19th century, maintains its cultural distinctiveness through schools, churches, and social organizations, facilitating the transmission of language, traditions, and religious practices. The evolution of this heritage reflects an adaptive migration process and the formation of a hybrid identity balancing Polish roots with Argentine integration. Despite challenges, heritage remains a living resource fostering community, cohesion and intercultural dialogue
