Piast Institute Meets with Representative of the European Community Organizing Network in Toledo, OH
September 19, 2011
In a meeting hosted by the Needmore Fund in Toledo, OH, Dr. Thaddeus Radzilowski and Virginia Skrzyniarz met with Gregory Wójkowski of Poland and Kajo Zboril of Slovakia to discuss means of expanding civic involvement and political participation in the new democracies of Poland and Slovakia, especially at the grassroots level.
The European visitors were particularly interested in the experience of Polish and Slovak communities in the U.S. in their adaptation to American democratic society. They also sought ways to forge links between Polish and Slovak American communities and their ancestral homelands to stimulate an increase in civic participation by drawing on their common traditions and values and their experiences in both worlds.
Other attendees included Representative Marcy Kaptur (D-OH), also representing the Anastasia Fund, David Beckwith, Executive Director of the Needmore Fund, Al Baldwin of the Great Lakes Consortium, Ramon Perez of North Toledo United and Julia Bertalan of the ECON (European Community Organizing Network).
The group agreed to develop a communication network to plan future meetings and explore joint projects. A fall meeting is planned.
