Mission
The Piast Institute, named after the legendary founder of Poland,
is an independent, non-profit Institute formed to accomplish the following
tasks:
* Act as a think tank and data resource center for Polonia to develop
policy papers and historical, cultural, political, economic, social,
and demographic studies on Polish and Polish-American topics.
* Provide unbiased information about current political, social and
economic developments in Poland to Polonia and to the general American
public.
* Provide information on Polonia, its role in American society and
politics and U.S. attitudes and policies toward Poland.
* Serve as a source for the collection and dissemination of information
and research findings. The Institute will seek to organize or facilitate
conferences, seminars, publications, public programs, lectures, and
exhibits for the Polish American community as well as for the wider
society.
* Help develop services for the Polish American community particularly
those which grow organically out of the research, data collection,
and historical and policy studies of the Institute.
The work of the Institute will be done through cooperating institutions,
Institute Fellows located in the United States and Europe, as well
as by its own resident staff. Read
