Institute for Strategic Studies in Krakow: 30 years of history
Synopsis
This publication is both a summary and testimony of the last 30 years of activity of the Institute for Strategic Studies, founded in 1993 under the name of the “International Center for the Development of Democracy” Foundation.
We would like to recall the most important events from the Institute’s activity to date – the goals and aspirations of the Foundation, the projects and actions that contributed to their achievement.
This publication is also an expression of gratitude to all those who have worked with the Institute, without whose contribution the fulfillment of our mission would not be possible.
