They use art and grassroots activism to spur political awareness and social change. They are a small but mighty team that favours collaboration and sharing of resources, so much of their work happens through partnerships with organisations that share their values. Their core work covers three overlapping areas:
-
Direct Support: they provide multilingual support to Polish, Romanian, and Roma communities in the UK on how to apply for ‘settled’ and ‘pre-settled’ status. They are also developing the Community Toolkit project, which will provide support on how to access welfare, housing, and mental health services.
-
Democratic Participation: they run civic engagement and “get out the vote” campaigns to spur democratic participation in the Polish diaspora. These campaigns focus on UK local elections, EU Parliamentary elections, and Polish elections. Moreover, these campaigns have become a tool for base-building, identifying up and coming leaders, and tackling broader issues of political marginalisation and voter suppression
- Political Education: they design political education programming that builds progressive leadership among Polish and East-European women and nonbinary people, while addressing head-on systemic issues like racism, anti-blackness and homophobia.
