​November 2023 ​–​ ​Light for peace

A peaceful demonstration beyond divisions. We decided to organize this event in response to escalating world conflicts, the victims of which are primarily civilians. Behind our eastern border, Russia's aggression against Ukraine continues, and in the Middle East, Hamas terrorists attacked Israel, which resulted in military operations by the Israeli army in the Gaza Strip. 
The action was attended by people representing various environments, from various national, religious and ethnic minorities. Followers of various religions spoke during the event and called for peace. They included: a Jew, a Muslim imam, a Catholic priest and a representative of the Palestinian community. The action took place on November 4, 2023 in Schiller’s Passage in Łódź. Participants lit a symbolic light as an expression of our call for peace.


​September 2020 – May 2023 – The Łódź Picnic of Diversity (4 editions)

​The Łódź of Diversity Coalition together with the Marek Edelman Dialogue Center, whose representatives also belong to the coalition, initiated The Łódź Picnic of Diversity. The first edition took place in September 2020, when we were still feeling the effects of the pandemic, so we met in an intimate group. The aim of the event is to promote the multiculturalism of Łódź and respect for human rights. In the face of constant threat and uncertainty, the picnic is to be a place where, in an atmosphere of safety and friendship, we discuss various topics related to building social relationships and arousing curiosity about the traditions and customs of various cultures. People representing various national, ethnic and religious groups living in Łódź are invited to the event. Everyone can present elements of their culture. There is cooking together, workshops, music, and attractions for children. 


​​June 2020 – Campaign at MPK Łódź to counteract violence motivated by prejudice

​The coalition's first action was to transfer to Łódź the campaign against violence motivated by prejudice in public space, carried out by the Nomada association from Wrocław. The campaign, in the form of a short film instructing how to react when witnessing violence motivated by prejudice (designed by Cyber Kids on Real), was broadcast for a month from June 15, 2020 on Łódź buses and trams.
