It's here and we can finally announce it - the list of winners of the International Essay Competition "My Europe of Freedom/ My Evropa Svobody/ Mein Europa der Freiheit". It includes authors from Poland, Germany and the Czech Republic who submitted their work by 12 April 2021.

Our list of finalists now includes 6 authors each from Poland, Germany and the Czech Republic. But it will not be until 11 December, at a gala event at the Zeitgeschichtliches Forum in Leipzig, that our international jury will announce the names of 3 winners from each country. These persons will receive cash prizes.

We would like to thank you very much for such a great interest in our competition! Congratulations to the finalists and we are already looking forward to December to meet the authors of the winning essays in person.
