I conduct research on Kashubia and Pomerania in which I focus on issues related to ethnicity, identity, cultural heritage and collective memory. I realized a project with a research team (2013–2017): Catalog and monograph on the intangible cultural heritage of Eastern Pomerania. The aim of it was to identify, analyze and scientifically elaborate study of the currently occurring manifestations of intangible cultural heritage on the territory of "old" Pomeranian territories and post-migration areas.
