Project

Neighbourhood Trialogue 2024

The Mieroszewski Centre invited young scientists, academics, experts, social activists and journalists from Poland, Ukraine and Belarus to participate in the second edition of the autumn school "Neighbourhood Trialogue". This unique event is a stepping stone to understanding the relations between Poland, Ukraine and Belarus, offering a unique opportunity to discover the common history of the three countries, explore mutual relations and reliably diagnose the problems existing between Poland, Ukraine and Belarus.

Why take part in the school?

The autumn school offers a unique opportunity to participate in classes conducted in three languages: Polish, Ukrainian and Belarusian. Participants can speak in their native languages, provided they understand the other two. This is a unique opportunity to learn and exchange experiences in an international environment.

Interdisciplinary learning with the best experts: the invited lecturers and tutors are eminent specialists who will teach on topics such as:

  • how to avoid common methodological errors when conducting research,
  • how to unmask statistical manipulations
  • how international law influences the foreign policy of states,
  • which problems concerning history burden the mutual relations of the peoples of the region and how to solve them,
  • to what extent and dimension is a nation responsible for the actions of a totalitarian government?

Small group, great opportunities: only 16 participants ensure an individual approach and the opportunity to actively participate in discussions and practical workshops.

Real-life case studies, practical workshops: the programme includes not only theoretical lectures, but also the analysis of real-life cases and practical workshops to apply the knowledge gained in practice.

No financial barriers: the Mieroszewski Centre provides accommodation, meals, participation in lectures and seminars, supporting materials and transport.
