Concilium Civitas – meeting 2023. Debates, discussion panels – what is the program?

The Collegium Civitas Foundation has announced a competition for this year’s high school graduates for a text about the future of Poland after the 2023 elections. “Share your ideas, fears, dreams to inspire others and change our common future for the better” – Jacek Żakowski, head of the Department of New Media and Journalism at Collegium Civitas, wrote in a letter to high school graduates.

The authors of the most interesting papers that could be sent by the end of May will receive financial prizes and free student books from leading non-public universities during the Concilium Civitas meeting.

The award ceremony will be accompanied by three-day discussion panels. The first day will be held under the slogan “Young Concilium”. On Friday, the awarded high school graduates will face Concilium professors in a discussion about their work. The day will end with the “Debate of generations”, in which both the winners of the competition and professors – Ireneusz Paweł Karolewski, Jan Kubik and Beata Javorcik will take part.
