On April 6, 2023, the State Institution “National Archives of the Republic of Belarus” was visited by students of grades 8-9 of schools in the Pervomaisky district of Minsk – members of the NGO “Belarusian Republican Youth Union”.

The tour was organized by the Pervomaisky District Committee of the NGO “Belarusian Republican Youth Union” together with the National Archives as part of the campaign “We are citizens of Belarus!” and “Archives for School” and is timed to coincide with the receipt of passports by the children.

The tour began with schoolchildren familiarizing themselves with the standards of the State Emblem and Flag of the Republic of Belarus. Then the children learned about the functions and organizational structure of the archive, as well as what documents make up the funds of the National Archives. Of particular interest were documents reflecting the activities of partisans during the Great Patriotic War.
