How to support German expellees / expellee political lobbies
our partners and affiliates
The IREG readily seeks affiliation with other academic or research institutes and independent groups. If you would like to affiliate your organisation or website with us, please submit an application. Only RELEVANT groups related to the timeframe or to genocide and refugee displacement will be accepted, including forums, websites, businesses, libraries, foundations, personal websites, etc.
We are
especially looking to affiliate with research organisations
devoted to documentating the displacement of other ethnic or religious groups, like the
Jews, Armenians, Hungarians, Chechens, Ingush, Bosniaks, Serbs,
Albanians, etc.
Criteria
for affiliation with IREG:
1) absolutely NO extremist websites (far-left, far-right,
Nazi, or racialist).
2) NO websites or individuals defending the
actions of the Nazis or irredentist claims to Prussia, etc.
3) we will NOT be implicated or linked with
the actions, beliefs, or statements of our partners.
4) the affiliated organisation must mutually advertise. If
our link or banner disappears from your site, so will yours.
Keep in mind that since we are NOT a political or activist group, we DO NOT SUPPORT any political agendas or arguments of our affiliates. These are strictly research and advertisement relationships.
