Go through our publications! At ENRS, we want to create a forum for exchange of opinions between historians, social studies scholars, and representatives of other disciplines engaged in memory studies. One of the ways of achieving this goal is by publishing our own annual journal "Remembrance and Solidarity Studies", as well as supporting external publications focused on remembrance and history of the 20th century in Europe.

The lesson includes historical context, analysis of the Warsaw Uprising and Dulag 121 transit camp, and the role of objects in preserving memory. Witness testimonies, including that of Teresa Gozdyra, emphasize the importance of firsthand accounts.
