An online active map of violations of religious freedom presents reported cases of crime and denominational discrimination. It is constantly updated to accurately depict the current situation in Poland and in the world. Our map is helpful in diagnosing and recognizing the full scale of the phenomenon of violation of freedom of conscience and religion. and will permit us to monitor this phenomenon. Thanks to this, we will be able to take appropriate preventive measures and implement effective response mechanisms.
