Thank you to everyone who joined our panel „How Do We Speak About Refugees Today?” ?
Together, we explored how refugees and migration are discussed in today’s society, examining the impact of public narratives, stereotypes, and attitudes on integration and social cohesion. Through insightful presentations and discussions, our speakers addressed topics such as hate crimes targeting refugees, attitudes toward migrants in Poland, refugee representation in the public sphere, and the challenges of long-term integration.
We are grateful to our distinguished speakers, Dr. Marta Pachocka, Dr. Anna Tatar, Aneta Szarfenberg, Dr. Dominka Bulska, and Dr. Dominik Wach for sharing their knowledge, perspectives, and experience.
Most importantly, thank you to all participants who contributed to the discussions with openness, curiosity, and a willingness to engage with complex but important topics. Events like these remind us that meaningful dialogue is an essential step toward greater understanding, inclusion, and solidarity.
