The first project on „Missile Defence” in Poland

Duration of the project (XII 2007 – XII 2008)

15 seminars and open meetings

Our tutors:

prof. M. Chorośnicki dr A. Gruszczak

International support (e.x. Ferszt-Buynoski Civil Society Project Grant)

What was the project for?

To enter public debate

Information in the press were flawed and too general

No students’ voice and no students’ debate on this important issue

Our objectives… • Stimulating the debate in Krakow academic environment about BMDS

• Providing independent voice of students about different aspects of MD’s impact on Polish security and foreign policy.

• Preparing competent scientific articles about different aspects of possible deployment of the elements of the U.S. Missile Defense on Polish territory.
