Originally founded in 2005, the “Instytut Auschwitz na rzecz Zapobiegania Zbrodniom Ludobójstwa i Masowym Aktom Okrucieństwa (Auschwitz Institute for the Prevention of Genocide and Mass Atrocities) is established as a Public Benefit Organization with its office in Oswiecim, Poland, where the former Nazi concentration and extermination camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau is located. AIPG's Polish Office provides local logistical and programmatic support for our flagship educational program, the Global Raphael Lemkin Seminar for Genocide Prevention, which takes place at Auschwitz and various sites around Oswiecim each year.
