Research in Poland
The second edition of the Mieroszewski Scholarship Programme "Research in Poland" - a financial support for your research project.
The Mieroszewski Centre announced the next edition of "Research in Poland", which is a scholarship that for the second year supports scholars and researchers in their efforts to deepen the knowledge of the history, culture and political situation of Central and Eastern Europe. The scholarship is a unique opportunity to gain financial support for research projects that are crucial to understanding the past and present of the peoples of this part of Europe.
Multidimensional research on the heritage of Central and Eastern Europe
The scholarship programme is addressed to researchers working on a wide variety of topics that are relevant to the development of contemporary knowledge and cultural identity. Examples of research projects carried out in previous editions illustrate the breadth of the programme participants' interests - from research into the social aspects of life in the late Russian Empire, to the analysis of the axiological foundations of political transformation in Central and Eastern Europe in the 1990s, to the attempts to understand women's experience of war in the context of their everyday experience of history.
