  Historic Center of the city of Hagen
    Research and resource acquisition on behalf of the exhibition project entitled: “Zwangsarbeit in Nordrhein-Westfalen 1939-1945” (“Forced labor in North Rhine Westphalia 1939-1945”).

In commision of the city of Hagen, HRA has pioneered in fundamental scientific research by gathering documents on the treatment of so-called “Ostarbeitern” (“Eastern workers”) from Poland and former Sovjet Union. The competent Polish, Russian and Ukrainian skills have proven to be a clear asset of HRA, thus being able to efficiently access, and process, poorly structured archives.
