Thursday Meetings

Monthly meetings have been held in Warsaw and in all branches every second Thursday from September through May since the moment Association came into being.

They are addressed to members living in Warsaw and the nearest region. Important aspect of those meeting is maintaining closer mutual relations through participation in joint events. There is always a leading topic of the meeting – we try to invite interesting speakers: journalists, politicians, writers, organize artistic and music entertainment or project movies.

Around 80 participants take part in every Thursday meeting. Meetings are open for people from outside, too but there are practically Association’s members who appear on them.

Congress of the Association Members

Apart from the monthly meeting a Congress is held every year in June. The last - eighteen - congress was held in Lodz in 2009. This is the occasion that our increasingly depleted family of survivors can meet together and enjoy the presence of friends and acquaintances from all over Poland and abroad.

The program of each congress include, among others, short psychotherapy program and educational program resume.

From 11 through 13 September 2009 The European Conference of Associations of Child Survivors of the Holocaust was held in Miedzeszyn near Warsaw.

The participants of this event were representatives of the associations of child survivors from Czech Republic, Slovakia, Sweden, England and Holland.
