Usually, when you open something, the ribbon is cut. But we came up with the idea that there would be no cutting, only tying. Two groups of children with two ribbons in the colors of both countries left the stage, and the two prime ministers came together and tied them with a knot. I believe it was a very significant moment: we start - we tie. Dr. Ewa Unger on the official opening of the Krzyżowa Foundation Center in 1998.

This year we had to say goodbye to Dr. Ewa Unger - co-founder of the Krzyżowa Foundation. Let her words be a message to us. When there's so much discouragement, anxiety, conflict around - let's tie! Let us take care of our relations, let us support each other, let us create a space of respect and understanding.

This is what we wish You - Our Friends and Partners - on the occasion of Christmas and the upcoming New Year.


The Management Board and Employees of the Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe
