Its mission is to promote international understanding and peaceful coexistence in Europe<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the heart of the foundation\u2019s work is Kreisau\/Krzy\u017cowa <\/strong>\u2013 a place of German resistance against the Nazi regime, of German-Polish reconciliation, and of European encounters and progress.
