Emigration does not eliminate the sense of identity, that is the sense of personal identity and historical continuity of personality. Poles in emigration continue to perceive themselves as members of the European Community. They are not afraid to admit their origins, even if sometimes in an environment in which they live, there are negative stereotypy against members of Polish nationality. Of course there are exceptions when immigrants prefer not to advertise their origins, but the Poles always proud of who they are. Modern living conditions negate some values, which form the sense of identity of people who are in long emigration. The problem of a sense of national identity in the postmodern world, where you can easily lose the identity of the word, is a real challenge for the XXI century education. Multicultural and intercultural education aims to teach young people how to develop global awareness and take advantage of living in a multicultural society.
