Civil society and civic life in Poland

To support relationships between nations the knowledge of journalists should be supported.

Get to know this great initiative! Before the European Football Championship 2012 more than 20 journalists of different German media went to Warsaw, Kiew and Charkow to get to know more about the civic life in the countries and preparation to the Championship.

Popularisation of democratic values by the Theodor-Heuss-Kolleg

The Theodor-Heuss-Kolleg was a funding programme of Robert Bosch Foundation. This collegue supported popularisation of democratic values among young people from East Central Europe.

I was a member of the Theodor-Heuss-Kolleg from May 2005 till July 2006. The photos present the finish of the collegue in July 2006 in Berlin.

Bologna process in Germany, Hungary and Poland

Students from almost all European countries should be interested in analyses of studies in Europe after the Bologna process.

The Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education publishes a number of changes which are important for universities after the Bologna process.

How it looks like in Germany, Hungary and Poland? Thanks to the cooperation between the Nicolaus Copernicus University, University in Göttingen and Szeged University in Hungary students of those universities could exhange their experiencies after the introduction of Bologna process at universities within a seminar.

The Balkans in the 19. and the 20. century

I took part on a seminar about the history of the relationships on the Balkan in the 19th and 20th century in Varna 2006. On the seminar took part students of history at the Potsdam university and Bulgarian history students.

If you are interested in history of the World War I on the Balkan, I recommend you this book: Der Erste Weltkrieg auf dem Balkan: Perspektiven der Forschung (2011)

Scientific background and mentors

My scientific background is based on study of German culture and language at Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń 2002-2007 and history study at University of Potsdam 2007-2013.

I recommend you to go there because of many possibilities to develop your skills and interests. I took part on many excursions to different historical regions of East Central Europe and learnt to make researches on the history and culture of the region.

It all was possible only thanks to help of my mentors, Prof. Jürgen Angelow (University Potsdam), Prof. Maria Gierlak (Nikolaus-Kopernikus-University), Prof. Helmut Peitsch (University Potsdam), Prof. Włodzimierz Zientara (Nikolaus-Kopernikus-University) and Dr. Iwona Kotelnicka (Nikolaus-Kopernikus-University).
