Powszechny Theatre, Strefa WolnoSłowa Foundation and Centre of Migration Research (University of Warsaw) are Polish partners of project „Atlas of Transitions. New geographies for a cross-cultural Europe”.

On the occasion of the World Refugee Day, we encourage you to hang out the international refugee flag, designed by Yara Said, an artist of Syrian origin, on the building of your institution. The orange flag with a black stripe, metaphorically referring to the life jacket, is a symbol of solidarity with all those who are forced to flee from their home countries and risk an exhausting journey in search of security. At that time, many nations sympathised with us and demonstrated empathy by welcoming us to their communities. Therefore, we should not close ourselves to multiculturalism or be afraid of tolerance for otherness. If you decide to perform that symbolic gesture, we will give you a ready-made flag.
