On April 18 we celebrated International Monuments Day. On that day, the second edition of the “Revitalization Forum” under the slogan “We are united by monuments” was held at Arche Cukrownia Żnin, organized by Arche Group. This year's event was attended by experts from Poland and Europe, as well as residents of Żnin and the surrounding area, including many former employees of the Żnin sugar factory. The meeting was an opportunity to recall the plant's history. Among other things, the participants of the event were shown a film of the protests that took place 20 years ago at the sugar plant.
Lukasz Dziamski, Partner of the Firm, acted as a speaker during a panel on social revitalization. He presented the social activities of the Most the Most Foundation, whose goals are supported by the HANTON Szalc Zięba & Partners team. The entire speech is available on the website.
We cordially invite you to listen to it.
In addition to interesting presentations and fruitful discussions, the organizers prepared for the participants film screenings on the second life of monuments and a walk through the Żnin Sugar Factory. During the ,,Revitalization Forum” in Znin, there was also a ceremony to settle the 2nd edition of the photo contest ‘(Un)forgotten Monuments’ and the opening of the post-competition exhibition.
Thank you to the organizers for a great initiative!
