Projects & Resources
-
The Negotiating Difficult Pasts project (2022-2024) aimed to develop a systematic approach to the difficult legacy of the Holocaust in Central and Eastern Europe. The project activities included organizations, individuals and initiatives working in the area of memory and care for Jewish heritage in Poland. During the project, a total of 29 different events (trainings, conferences, commemorations, consultation meetings, artistic initiatives) were organized in larger and smaller cities in Poland. -
The project Multidirectional Memory: Remembering for Social Justice (2023-2025) proposed a cross-sectional approach to memory – emphasizing its importance for social justice and addressing contemporary challenges related to human rights violations, armed conflicts and violence, social exclusion and the migration crisis. Drawing on Michael Rothberg’s concept of “multidirectional memory”, the project discussed and initiated diverse forms of active commemoration in public spaces in several European countries. -
The Rescue Memory Project – activism, art and public memory (2024-present) is a continuation of work with difficult heritage, supporting educational activities, including residents and organizing public events. It involves work on new forms of commemoration, new ways of talking about the past, which is still little present or most often silenced at the social and scientific level.
