The "Pilecki Institute Archives: Activation" international online conference

Over one million: the number of documents so far included in our digital archives, ready to be launched with an international online conference on 12-13 January 2021.

The digital Pilecki Institute Archives gather and share documents devoted to the fate of Polish citizens who experienced the 20th-century German and Soviet totalitarian regimes. This material has been acquired from domestic and foreign institutions, such as the Bundesarchiv, the United Nations Archives, the British National Archives, the Institute of National Remembrance, Polish State Archives, and many others, in order to create a hub of knowledge and a center for comprehensive research enabling scholars, journalists, culture researchers and all interested parties to examine the history of World War II and the double occupation of Poland.

During the "Pilecki Institute Archives: Activation" conference, we will present our digital archives and discuss our collections and the role that archives play in the modern world, all in an international environment. Simultaneous interpretation in Polish, English and German will be provided.
