At the request of the Malopolska Development Policy Observatory, Collect Consulting S.A.conducted the research “Popularizing of the pre-primary education in Malopolska. The state and the support directions.".

Annual Report "Malopolska Development Policy Observatory” No. 7 is a continuation of the monitoring (carried out since 2005) of the funds derived from the European Union and the ways of their spending in the Malopolska region. In this report analysts focus on the summary of the public investment undertaken by the EU co-financing.

A research project under the title ‘Researching the development possibilities of functional subregions of Małopolska’ was conducted by the Institute for Structural Research and Reytech Sp. z o.o. in May-October 2011 for the Malopolska Development Policy Observatory.

Katarzyna Rogalinska and Tomasz Rogaliński from the School of Public Administration in Kielce prepared the analysis concerning white and green sector in Malopolska.

The aim of this analysis was to estimate transport accessibility, both existing and expected until 2020 (in case of railway transport until 2030), of the selected Malopolska cities and towns: Kraków, Oświęcim, Chrzanów, Trzebinia, Nowy Targ, Nowy Sącz, and Tarnów. The study examined these towns’ accessibility from rural communities, other Malopolska towns and from the neighbouring regions.
