Jan Józef Lipski Master Thesis Competition is meant to commemorate its Patron by supporting the gifted students of humanities and social sciences and facilitating their entrance to the world of science. Jan Józef Lipski, literature research specialist, deserves our memory due to his scientific achievements, and exceptional contribution to the shaping of our social and civic awareness, which has a special place in the history of the democratic opposition movement in Poland. We are also convinced that awarding the young people, who deal in their master theses with humanities-related problems and who are sensitive to the social issues, is important for the development of the whole society.

The first edition of the competition was announced in 1995, at the initiative of Zbigniew Bujak, and it was organized by the Social-Democratic Society. Since 2002, it has been organized by our Association.
