W służbie pokoju
Start date: Sep 3, 2014, End date: Sep 2, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The project "Service to Peace" is a part of educational work of Krakowska Fundacja Centrum Dialogu i Modlitwy w Oświęcimiu ( CDiM ). The project is aimed at students from Germany, Poland and the other European countries. CDiM is located near the former Concentration Camp Auschwitz Birkenau. The aim of CDiM is to create a place where people of various denominations and creed can come for meetings, conversation, learning, reflections and prayer. CDiM helps to commemorate the victims and to build a world mutual respect, reconciliation and peace. The Education Department of CDiM carries out this kind of work in which the volunteers are involved. The volunteers help with watching over the study groups visiting CDiM for 3-6 days. They arrange group programmes together with the other workers of the Education Department and with the group leaders. They also participate in fulfilling those programmes. During the meetings organised in schools of Oświęcim the volunteers build bridges between the Polish pupils and the international youth who come to CDiM. Furthermore, the volunteers assist in working of library, gathering archives, publishing and making exhibitions and lectures. The project "Service to Peace" wants to establish civilization of love by shaping mutual understanding and to overcome stereotypes and superstitions. Moreover, the volunteers have the opportunities for personal as well as professional development and they can acquire new skills.
