Dear MA Students,

We are inviting you to consider joining the Practical Project Group entitled “Creative Education” (Wednesday 9:00-11:30).  It is run by the Volunteer Centre of the University of Warsaw. We have cooperated with the team already and their experience and professionalism have always been highly appreciated by students and their classes filled to capacity. This year, the Instructors prepared a project which requires the involvement of more people to make it work successfully. Since our MA program is small, we would like to open it up to MA I students. If you want to do a Practical Project in advance during your first year of studies, you are welcome. Please, let Filip Boratyn know as soon as possible.

MA II students who missed their registration or would like to join the group as well, please, contact Filip Boratyn too.
It is a great opportunity. Do not miss it! For confirmation, visit their site: https://wolontariat.uw.edu.pl/ and see all the wonderful thighs they are doing.

Yours,
Małgorzata Gajda-Łaszewska
