Serdecznie zapraszam międzynarodowe grono badaczy do udziału w konferencji poświęconej wyłaniającej się dorosłości.
To wyjątkowa okazja do interdyscyplinarnej refleksji nad wielowymiarowymi przemianami dotykającymi młodych dorosłych we współczesnym świecie. Wierzę, że wspólna refleksja oraz wymiana doświadczeń wzbogaci nie tylko naukę, ale i zainspiruje nowe kierunki badań.

I cordially invite an international group of researchers to participate in a conference dedicated to the topic of emerging adulthood.
This event offers a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary dialogue on the complex transformations shaping the lives of young adults in today's world. I believe that our shared reflections and exchange of experiences will not only deepen our scientific understanding, but also inspire new and innovative directions for future research.
