MISSION

The mission of the annual is to share research that encourages reflection on the history of the German camp for Polish children, the Polen-Jugendverwahrlager der Sicherheitspolizei in Litzmannstadt, in Przemysłowa Street in Łódź, as well as on the fates of children during the Second World War in the Polish territories occupied by the Third Reich and the USSR, and beyond their borders. Additionally, it provides a space for the publication of research on the post-war lives of the children of heroes from the Polish independence underground, and on issues concerning children’s rights and the violation of those rights.

The annual is a historical journal, open to collaboration with researchers from other fields, including the social and legal sciences, who conduct research in line with the journal's mission. It enables both experienced and young researchers to publish research articles, review articles, case studies and reviews.
