\"\ud83c\udf1f\"<\/a>The program was very rich of experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\ud83d\uddfb\" Kopiec Wyzwolenia: Participants explored this significant Polish site, immersing themselves in its cultural significance. The Kopiec Wyzwolenia is a symbol of Piekar and Silesia region. The hill was artificially embanked and it took 5 years to complete. Built in the 1930s by the inhabitants of Piekary \u015al\u0105skie and neighboring towns, it became a symbol of the struggle for Polishness and a reminder of the battles of the Silesian insurgents during the post World War I period. The participants climbed the hill from which they could see the whole Silesian region, which is a symbolic moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\ud83c\udfe2\"MDK2 Piekary \u015al\u0105skie<\/a> Youth Center: Workshops on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\ud83c\udf89\" Volunteer Gala: The activists attended the annual Gala Volunteer dedicated to the International Volunteer Day, where local volunteers were awarded. Meeting with local volunteers and youth activists allowed participants to connect with the local volunteer community. Also participants presented the results of their local projects, which they implemented in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\ud83c\udf3f\" Gliwice’s Unique Palmierna: A century-old wonderland with rare plants and fish, allowing a glimpse of the biodiversity of flora and fauna that are very difficult to see in the nature of Poland and Ukraine. It features plants from Australia, Africa and America, aquariums with fish from the Amazon basin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
