Abstracts

The article outlines the history of the Uniwersytet Polski Zagranicą (UPZ, Polish University Abroad), established in Paris in 1939 in response to the threat to Polish academia during World War II. Led by Prof. Oskar Halecki, UPZ provided refugees with the opportunity to continue their studies in Polish and promoted Polish culture internationally. After the war, its activities were relocated to London, where it has operated as the Polski Uniwersytet na Obczyźnie (PUNO, Polish University Abroad) since 1947. The institution continues to support Polish education and culture, serving successive generations of emigrants, preserving the ethos of its founders, and promoting Polish heritage worldwide.
