Our story

Cultures Link is a 100% female-led startup, founded by an Indian-Pakistani duo, based between Algeciras and Cambridge. Our own experiences with migration and identity struggles inspired us to create the solution we wish we'd had growing up.

We know what it's like to feel pressured to assimilate while wanting to celebrate your roots. We know the craving for belonging in a foreign land. We know what it's like to be torn between two cultures.

Cultures Link exists to remind you that you're not alone, and your relationship with your culture is yours to define. We're just here to guide you through it with our online programs.

Our mission

We want to help you feel at peace with who you are; not by "fixing" you, but by reminding you through our programs, that you were never broken.

Our programs help people explore the deep impacts culture poses on one's mental well being. Whether you are adjusting to life abroad or feeling disconnected from your roots, our intuitive programs are designed to reduce cultural discomfort and help you rebuild with confidence 

​Our mentors blend academic insight with real-world stories of migration, identity, and healing

Experience & Research-based

Finding your sense of belonging can't be automated. That’s why all our programs include live, interactive sessions

Human first, always

All of our tools are digital, flexible, and designed to meet you wherever you are based

Paperless resources only

Algeciras & Cambridge?!

Although we operate fully online, our operations span across borders, just like the communities we serve.

These two cities might seem like an odd pair, but they're actually perfect for what we do. Algeciras is a Spanish port city where migration and multiculturalism are part of everyday life. Having Anjana based here keeps us connected to the communities we support, while Zara in Cambridge gives us access to global networks and innovation that help us create better programs.
