This is another sign that as part of the Expo 2020 Dubai program, we engage young, talented students from Polish universities, after all, students will also be involved in staffing the Poland Pavilion. The design students’ works are also a confirmation of Polish creativity, which is at the center of our message during Expo. – says Adrian Malinowski, Commissioner General of the Polish Section Expo 2020 Dubai.
