Działalność Komisji Epidemiologicznej Ligi Narodów w Warszawie 1921–1924

The purpose of the article is to analyse the Epidemic Commission of the League of Nations’ activity in Warsaw and answer the questions: how its relations with the Polish authorities developed, what instruments did it have at its disposal, and what were the results of its efforts? Based on the materials from the League of Nations Archives in Geneva, it should be said that the operation of the Commission in Warsaw was of key importance for the forms of activity and development of organisational structures of the League of Nations responsible for health protection. The outstanding Polish bacteriologist and social activist Ludwik Rajchman played a vital role in this context.
