The Citizen Project Foundation has the objective of promoting ethical attitudes of freedom, human rights, and civil liberties among citizens, especially children and adolescents, through culture, education, and technology. It is run by a two-person board and volunteers and partners with other institutions locally, nationally, and internationally. Current activities include projects promoting dynamic identity and using technology like the internet to combat social exclusion. The foundation aims to support democracy and discuss taboo topics like tolerance through generation dialogue to counter online hate and sensationalized news. It documents the repeated arson of a rainbow art installation in Warsaw between 2012-2013 during nationalist celebrations, though the installation was rebuilt each time.

6. MOTIVATION AS TALKING
ABOUT TABOOS PARTNER
(...) From my personal perspective ...
Absence of tolerance for differences kills curiosity and openness to diversity. Publicly –
f.i. importance politicians - use "zero tolerance“ as the theme of their propaganda.
There is no dialogue with reflection on the causes and consequences of non-
tolerance. Especially young people for whom a dialogue between generations is
difficult are left to the influence of the language of hate on the Internet and the
effects of news media focused on sensation.
... Is this the case only in Poland?

7. RAINBOW.
