Are we a society open to dialogue? How does political polarisation affect our lives? What practical steps could we take to strengthen our sense of community?

On 1 June, a meeting with Wawrzyniec Smoczyński took place, under the title: "The condition of public life in Poland".

The meeting was attended by over 80 people.

It was the first of a series of meetings organised as part of the project 'Laboratory of Dialogue' carried out by the Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe together with the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Poland.

Series of online workshops "Krzyżowa invites to creativity". Part 3: Dyes - where do colours come from and why is it important to know that?

Liubov Shynder and Agnieszka Duduś, YIMC Krzyżowa

We invite you to watch the second part of our online workshop series "Krzyżowa invites to creativity", which presents the International Youth Meeting Place's approach to art education.

Step by step, in the form of films, we present four different artistic methods which combine elements of upcycling and thus show how to create art in harmony with care for the environment.

We write more about the purpose of our project here: https://bit.ly/2RKSZYG

This time we will look at colours and natural ways of dyeing..

[The article 'Krzyżowa - reconciliation in practice' was originally published in the MOCAK Forum magazine - a publishing project carried out by MOCAK Museum of Contemporary Art in Krakow. The text comes from issue 1/2020, which was focused on the challenges of education. We would like to thank the author and the publisher for the opportunity to publish the whole article in Polish. Below we present selected excerpts from the article translated into English. At the end of the page there is also a PDF file with the article in Polish].

Imagine a place where a dream has come true. In a former state farm, surrounded by dilapidated farm buildings and a palace with a hole in the roof, the leaders of two countries burdened with the trauma of war met. In a joint effort, Poles and Germans, supported by friends from other countries, created in this place - in the Lower Silesian village in Krzyżowa - an international meeting house.
