The project referenced in the report is part of the larger European Union (EU) Catching-up regions program, financed and managed by the European Commission (EC). The scope of the Catching-up regions program is to work directly with less developed regions in the EU, and help them overcome development hurdles. In Poland, the EC implements the Catching-up regions program with the help of the World Bank, focused on topics including technology transfer centers, direct support to Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and improved vocational education systems. The Improved Spatial planning in Poland project is part of the second phase of the Poland Catching-up regions program, and it aims to determine both how spatial planning can be expanded and improved. The project focused on two regions in Poland (Podkarpackie and Swietokrzyskie), and on three types of issues related to spatial planning.  See Less -
