Habent sua fata libelli - books have their fate. Books, as material objects, tell the story of their
owners. This saying should be extended to include electronic publications, especially those that are
not made available right away but have been stored on the editor hard drive.
Last year, when we were preparing to organise a debate entitled „World with (no) borders” we
invited its moderators, Professor Wojciech Szczerba and his daughter, Antonina, to prepare essays as
a form of introduction to the topics we wanted to address during the debate.
You could follow the debate live and a recording of it is available on Youtube:

Eventually the essays, which were previously received by participants of the debate, were never
published. Today we are correcting this mistake and making them available on our website: [LINK]

We invite you to listen to a conversation with Anna Malinowska, journalist and author of the book "Brown Lullaby. Stories of kidnapped children", about the Nazi search for "good blood", the post-war fate of robbed children who were deprived of their identity and family, and the demanding work of a reporter who collects the testimonies of the victims.
The conversation, prepared as a podcast, is part of the educational project “Uprooted – (Hi)Stories of Stolen Children during World War II”.
We would like to remind you that podcasts of the Krzyżowa Foundation can also be listened to on the most popular podcasting platforms: anchor.fm, Spotify, as well as on: Google Podcast and Breaker.

We are pleased to announce that the first meeting of the third edition of the project "Laboratory of dialogue and reconciliation" has just taken place. A project that the Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe is implementing in cooperation with the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Poland from 2019.
"Since the first edition of the project, our focus has been to create a space for the presentation and exchange of experiences and ideas among people actively working to promote constructive dialogue based on mutual respect," says Dr Tomasz Skonieczny, project coordinator. "Today, in light of Russia's unprecedented aggression against Ukraine, the crimes committed by Russian soldiers against the civilian population, in view of the devastating changes that two years of pandemonium have caused in our social and economic life, issues such as dialogue and reconciliation must be looked at anew, from a completely different perspective. There is no doubt, however, that dialogue is what we invariably need. Even in the face of legitimate questions about its limits'.
