The Polish Episcopal Conference or Polish Bishops' Conference (Polish: Konferencja Episkopatu Polski or KEP) is the central organ of the Catholic Church in Poland. It is composed of 3 cardinals, 24 archbishops and 118 bishops.

In 2018, KEP completed a survey on clerical abuse against children and found that 382 priests had been accused of abusing at least 660 minors.^[1] The survey’s report led to the creation of the St Joseph’s Foundation to help abuse survivors^[2][3] as well as action against clergy.^[4]

In summer 2020, KEP stated that church teaching on homosexuality was infallible and promoted conversion therapy programs.^[5][6]

In June 2023, KEP made an appeal for calm discussions on migration and promoted wise hospitality and solidarity.^[7]
