About – Fundacja InBetween Culture & Social

Our goal is to support and promote the development of science, culture, and art, environmental protection, the advancement of social and cultural education, the protection of historical monuments through international cooporation in those areas. In particular, we strive to support and preserve the cultural heritage – especially Polish and German – by research, archive querying, documenting, protecting, and popularizing works of art, in Poland and abroad.

We implement our goals by international cooperation for social activization and the development of local communities, as well as education in the areas of science, art, and culture, through workshops, meetings, training, and art exhibitions. We initiate, organize, and support humanitarian aid and assistance for refugees. We promote environmental protection and pro-ecological activities, volunteering, and charity.

We are based in Wrocław, Poland, and here we plan to focus our efforts.
