In the wake of the upcoming parliamentary elections in Poland, we cordially invite to an academic conference taking place on May 30th and 31st  2023 at the Faculty of Social Sciences (3 Koszarowa Street).

The pre-election debate will be moderated by students of the University of Wroclaw, who have also authored all the questions. The debate will be simultaneously translated from Polish into English.
