Lobbying

We have successfully lobbied in favor of restitution process, regarding confiscation and nationalization laws and decisions that link the Nazi occupation 1941-1944 and the forthcoming communist period.

We are especially proud of taking part in public pressure and successful passing the2016 compensation law for heirless confiscated Jewish property, the first such law envisaged by the Terezín Declaration of 46 states in 2009. 

We are offering basic info on particular research results or fully accessible journal articles.
