This year, for the first time the Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe joined the coalition of NGOs active in the project Jochanneum Novum, funded by the Municipality of Wrocław.

Our task in this project was to carry out trainings for teachers of Wrocław primary and secondary schools on anti-discrimination education tool "Stories that move". The coordinator of these activities was Liubov Shynder - specialist of educational projects of International Youth Meeting Place in Krzyżowa.

„International youth exchange - meeting of partners” – under this slogan, an online meeting was held on 7 December 2021, addressed to people from Poland, Germany and Ukraine. Its main goal was to initiate tripartite partnerships between schools from these three countries, resulting in the organization of youth exchanges both in Krzyżowa and elsewhere.

Despite the online formula, the meeting was very popular and allowed the participating teachers to make new acquaintances, exchange contacts and experiences as well as ideas for future cooperation. The meeting was attended by people who know Krzyżowa well and had the opportunity to participate in our projects, as well as people who learned about the possibilities of organizing international meetings for young people thanks to this event.

We invite you to watch the documentary "Invaders Despite Their Will. Polish participation in the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968", which is now available on YouTube.

The film is based on interviews with witnesses of time: Polish soldiers who took part in the intervention of the Warsaw Pact troops in Czechoslovakia in August 1968, and Czechs who watched their dreams of building socialism with a human face fall. It tells about the way Poles perceived their participation in the military intervention and about the reactions of the Czechs.

On 2-4 December, a meeting of the Polish-German Copernicus Group took place in Krzyżowa. This unique body consists of representatives of the scientific and journalistic community.

The aim of discussions in the Copernicus Group is to identify current, permanent and potential problems of understanding and agreement, differences of interests, points of contention and conflicts in Polish-German relations. The next step is to discuss in the group possible ways of settling them or finding solutions. The result of each discussion is the creation of a common strategy document called "report"("Arbeitspapier").
