The "HISTORY CONNECTS US" festival, the originator of which is Mirosław Majkowski, is organized under the patronage of the Mayor of Przemyśl. The project coordinator is Beata Bielecka, Head of the Development, Investment and European Funds Department. Renata Nowakowska, Director of the Przemyśl Culture and Science Center ZAMEK, is responsible for the concept and implementation of the artistic part.
 

Most of us will play the role of spectators during the second edition of the "History connects us" Festival (Festiwal "Łączy nas Historia"), taking advantage of the rich program of the event. However, the organizers have a proposition for the inhabitants of the city who would like to actively participate in the course of festival events and recreate any character from the interwar period.

The second edition of the "Przemyśl is ENTRE!-preneurial" extracurricular activities has concluded in seven secondary schools in Przemyśl from January to June of this year as part of the Together We Change Przemyśl project. The project is funded by external sources, with 85% coming from the Norwegian Financial Mechanism for the years 2014-2021 and 15% from the national budget under the Local Development program.

On 21 June 2023, a ceremony was held at the shooting range in Nienadowa, marking the end of the undertaking called “Professionals in Uniforms”, which lasted almost the entire school year and was carried out by State University of Applied Sciences in Przemyśl as part of the project  called “Together we change Przemyśl” financed by the Norwegian funds. After months of intensive training in first aid, self-defense techniques and the use and handling of air weapons, the project's participants - students of Przemyśl secondary schools - had the opportunity to experience real weapons in the field. Under the watchful eye of trainers, the pupils were familiarized with more than a dozen types of weapons and had an opportunity to shot at targets. The students highlighted that they would be happy to participate in a similar undertaking  once again, and that the knowledge and skills they acquired during the project activities will be very useful to them in their further.
