Kurpiowszczyzna is one of the most interesting ethnographic regions, with a center of original, well-preserved and carefully cultivated Kurpie folk culture. The image of the Kurpie village is the result of centuries of human activity. Over the centuries there have been transformations of the landscape, based on the adaptation of the natural environment to cultivate the land and the gradual establishment of human settlements, which have given the modern image.

In civil society, self-government as a form of social organization occupies one of the central positions. The condition for the realization of the development mission of local government is the participation of citizens and their co-responsibility for the shape of local social life. Recently, civic budgeting has become an increasingly popular form of participation, resulting in the direct involvement of residents in the process of deciding on the selection of the scope of public tasks within the designated pool of funds and assuming part of the responsibility.

Dozens of local governments – municipal and county councils and provincial assemblies – have passed resolutions and declarations opposing LGBT ideology. The creators of these documents emphasized the desire to protect the family based on traditional values and to defend the educational system against LGBT propaganda/ideology. Opponents warned against the stigmatization of non-heteronormative people. The guideline for the above documents became publicized in 2019. “Local Government Charter on the Rights of Families.”

Stanislava Walasiewicz (1911-1980), known in America as Stella Walsh, was one of the biggest stars of women’s athletics in the world between the wars. She was a female athlete, capable of almost single-handedly winning against the national teams of more than one country. From her first start on Polish soil, she won the hearts of fans, demonstrating a class superior to anything yet seen in Poland in short runs, jumps and even throws. Although she has lived in faraway Cleveland, Ohio, since childhood, she has represented the Polish colors all her life, bringing much splendor to her homeland.
