❗In addition to locating lost family and educating the public, our resources help prosecute perpetrators of #Nazi and #Communist crimes and bring them to justice, if possible. It is the job of the Chief Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes against the Polish Nation.❗ pic.twitter.com/AjQAutSPAB

The point is to raise knowledge of modern history among the general public. That is also why our archives are accessible to scholars and journalists – the research they carry out translates into books and articles that educate, spark interest and provoke debates.

Helpful as they are to people tracking lost relatives, archives serve much larger groups when they are used for education. Aware of that, the #IPN organizes classes, workshops, seminars, lectures, competitions, exhibitions, film screenings and other similar events.

Edward #Mosberg, a former inmate of the #GermanCamps in Płaszów and #Mauthausen, is committed to educating the worldwide community on the #Holocaust; similarly, he’s deeply involved in improving Polish-Jewish dialogue, and his contribution here is impossible to overestimate. pic.twitter.com/mC7stnPenf
