Work title and academic title:
Ph.D.

Duties in the SC:
Member for Poland
Working group member
I'm a member of EUPRIO AWARD JURY.

Why did you get engaged in the SC, why do you think it is important?
Because there was no other people from my country as permanent members of EUPRIO, someone has to be such person. That is why I am engaged in SC.

Describe the situation for your country for university communications:
PUPRIO Association has about 70 members and I am a president of it. Our latest iniciative is to open our own ranking of Polish universiies because existing ones seem to be to much ccommercialised. We have two ways of working together - conferences organised twice a year and premanent and very active disscussing email group. Getting stronger and stronger...

What are the biggest challenges for university communication in your country? And in Europe?
Reaching more comfortable position among rectors is our biggest challenge. Expressing our own position in front of some official EU documents - in Europe.
