By : (A.K.)
BARTOSZ JALOWIECKI, 28, was appointed president of Polsko-Niemieckie Pojednanie, a Polish-German foundation which has recently been involved in negotiations on compensation for forced labor used in German companies and concentration camps during World War II. Jalowiecki, who is fluent in English and German, has participated in those talks from the beginning as an adviser to Jerzy Widzyk, the head of Prime Minister Jerzy Buzek's office and the head of the Polish delegation during the negotiations. Prior to working for Widzyk, Jalowiecki was an adviser to Undersecretary of State Jerzy Marek Nowakowski. Jalowiecki immigrated to the United States as a child, and later attended an international secondary school in Munich, where, as he put it, everything started. He became involved with the legal department at the Polish consulate in Munich while a student at that city's Ludwig Maximilian University. After graduating from the university in 1996, Jalowiecki began his professional career at the Centrum Stosunkow Miedzynarodowych, a center for international affairs, which he left in 1998 to join the prime minister's office. Jalowiecki is married with two children. He said that in his free time, he takes care of his children.
