Thanks to the initiative and support of the Social Archive Centre, in 2023 the Zofia Rydet Foundation submitted an application for the inclusion of the “Sociological Record” series on the Polish National UNESCO List. To our great joy and satisfaction, the Polish UNESCO Committee approved it.
On 26 June 2024, a certificate confirming this honourable distinction was presented to President Maria Sokół-Augustyńska.
We would like to thank all those who contributed to the development and promotion, together with us, of this invaluable work, the “Record”! This is the culmination of the efforts of a large team of people, but above all a recognition of the value of Rydet’s work—steadfast and consistent throughout many years of artistic practice, the result of which is an extraordinary document of a bygone era.
