On 21-25.01.2020, the International Youth Meeting Centre hosted a meeting with the students of Nelson Mandela School in Berlin and Primary School No. 8 from Świdnica.

The Polish-German group worked mainly on historical topics, focusing on the issue of persecution during the Nazi period. The workshops were accompanied by presentations and discussions in multinational groups. The young people also had the opportunity to discuss more contemporary topics and threats, such as climate change, among themselves. The results of their group work were then presented in public.

The group took part in a guided tour of the Krzyżowa Foundation and learned about the history of the anti-Nazi group Krąg z Krzyżowej. The young people also visited the Gross Rosen Museum, where the students laid flowers and commemorated the victims of Nazi terror.

Coordination: Karolina Moroz - specialist for educational projects at the IYMC in Krzyżowa, Antonina Finskaia - volunteer at the IYMC in Krzyżowa
