About the gala
For last year's achievements, the jury and, for the first time in history, the residents of Chojnice County, thanks to online voting, honoured, among other things, people of culture, sports, science, entrepreneurs and social activists. A total of 36 statuettes were awarded in 10 categories. Dr Dawid Kobiałka (Institute of Archaeology, University of Lodz) was honoured in the "Personality" category. In recent years, the scientist has conducted archaeological research in the Death Valley, discovering the remains of hundreds of victims of World War II, who were buried with dignity in September last year.
What we have done together with many other people is a great achievement, for many the achievement of their lives. We have not done anything more important from a scientific, cultural, social and humanitarian point of view and let’s hope neither we nor our children will have to do it again
– underlines Dr Dawid Kobiałka (Institute of Archaeology, University of Lodz)
