Consortium for reactivation of the
National Museum of Natural History
On July 31st 2012, the Institute became a founding member of a
consortium of research institutions of the Polish Academy of
Sciences established for reactivation of the National Museum of
Natural History (Narodowe Muzeum Przyrodnicze).
The Museum had been originally established on 24th of October 1919
by a decree of the Minister of Religious Beliefs and Public
Enlightenment, but after the World War II its remains were
incorporated into institutes of the Academy. Other members of the
consortium are the Museum and Institute of Zoology, Botanical
Garden-Centre of Preservation of Biodiversity, and the Museum of
Earth. It is expected that the new institution will be joined also
by natural sciences research institutes of the Academy located in
Cracow.
