Concilium Civitas

Concilium Civitas is a community of Polish social science professors working at leading universities worldwide. Founded as an informal initiative, it brings together researchers in social, economic, political and historical processes who participate in international academic debates and offer their expertise to public discussion in Poland. Its work includes publishing the annual Concilium Civitas Almanac, a collection of members’ essays on important issues affecting Polish society, and organizing meetings and conferences, including annual gatherings at Warsaw’s Palace of Culture and Science.

The organization also supports younger writers through the Young Concilium competition and Young Almanac, which features selected student essays. Competition laureates can join Young Concilium and take part in the Concilium Civitas Ambassador program, creating opportunities for discussion with established scholars and fostering exchange across generations. Concilium Civitas shares publications and information about its members and activities through its website and social media.

Its Almanac is offered free of charge, and the project is sustained through private donations to the Concilium Civitas Foundation
