Poland has launched a campaign, titled “We Did It In Poland”, to promote awareness of Polish achievements in science and business, in particular among young Poles. One of the motivations behind the initiative was a recent poll showing 20% of Poles feel ashamed of their country, up from 14% in 2010.
“Pride in their country is felt mainly by representatives of the oldest generation, the so-called baby boomers,” says Olga Kozierowska, head of the Włączeni Plus foundation, which is running the campaign under the patronage of Poland’s current six-month presidency of the Council of the European Union.
“The Gen Zs [those born between around 1997 and 2012], on whom the shaping of Poland’s image in the coming years will depend to the greatest extent, are the most likely of all generations to feel shame,” she added.

Sometimes a bit contra propaganda ( or “public mass information campaigns” )is a good answer to increased exposure to disinformation and the likes.
As long as it’s truthful and honest, it can increase awareness and less "confusion " so to speak.
And yes, propaganda is a loaded policy, but disinformation is a serious theme and issue. Countering it, is hard as hell.
We Did It in Poland
I feel like that one particular Brooklyn 99 running gag may be appropriate here.
There are going to be A LOT of videogame titles with that badge. In 2024 I practically had a full Polish gaming year.
What achievements?
No affordable housing, limited access to dormitories, poor public transportation, bad air quality, inflation, youth feels being forgotten by the government, no jobs, etc.First, secure basic needs.
This is the most polish thing ever.
