Presentation of New Technology Division projects at the Historical Camp in Czerwony Bór

The Historical Camp in Czerwony Bór is an event that brought together 60 students under the slogan “The Price of Freedom – Czerwony Bór 1944”. The students deepened their historical knowledge, took part in lectures, presentations, trips, workshops, and got acquainted with the educational projects of the New Technology Division.

Historical Camp in Czerwony Bór – learning and fun in one

Singing of patriotic songs, overcoming an obstacle course, a historical and sightseeing trip in the footsteps of Polish soldiers, lectures under tents, and learning history through games and applications. Students from schools in Łomża had the opportunity to learn through experience.

This history lesson, organized with great fanfare in Czerwony Bór, combined learning about community building,patriotic attitudes, and experiencing living history. The event took place at the GROM training ground center, which additionally added survival elements.

Mobile boxes with immersive historical education presented during the event

The students who took part in the camp discovered history in various ways – through lectures, presentations, workshops, trips, and games and applications of the Institute of National Remembrance.

Using mobile boxes with immersive historical education, all projects of the IPN’s New Technology Division were presented, although due to the nature of the event, two games were the most popular – “Warsaw Rising” and “Aviators – War in the Skies”. These are educational games set in the times of World War II. Therefore, they best corresponded to the topics discussed during the camp.

Thanks to the presented projects, the youth expanded their historical awareness and supplemented their previously acquired knowledge. The combination of outdoor historical workshops with the presentation of immersive mobile box projects allowed for full engagement of the senses and imagination, facilitating the understanding of past events.
