Representatives of regional and municipal government, institutions of higher education in Oswiecim, and the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum unveiled a "Program Concept for an International Seminar and Conference Center and an International Education Center," as part of the "Strategic Government Program for Oswiecim."
After an adjournment of over one year, the District Court in Bielsko-Biala reopened proceedings in the suit by the Maja SA Corporation, developers of a commercial center located close to the Auschwitz camp site, against the State Treasury.
A group of Yad Vashem staff members spent two weeks at the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum as part of the cooperation program established between the two institutions several years ago.
A newspaper article appeared on the so-called "Little Red House," pointing out serious shortcomings in the new law on the protection of memorial sites.
