"Through intensive media activities, we reach different corners of the world. We speak about historically and socially important issues, using the knowledge of experts, scientists of the Catholic University of Lublin. The Catholic University of Lublin is a source of a great deal of valuable scientific inspiration in the international arena. On many occasions, information on projects, initiatives and research of KUL scientists is provided by the Vatican media in several or even more than a dozen languages. This is also how the university's mission continues in the modern world," says Rev. Dr. Paweł Rytel-Adrianik, director of the Heschel Center of the Catholic University of Lublin.
