Cele Strategii Lizbońskiej w regionalnych programach operacyjnych

Abstract

One of the most important policy issues in many parts of the world is the transformation of economies into knowledge driven economies. The con- cept of knowledge economy is given the highest priority also in the European Union’s socio-economic agenda (the Lisbon Strategy launched in 2000 and renewed in 2005). The purpose of this paper is to present how Lisbon Strategy influences the allocation of cohesion funds aimed at Polish regional develop- ment. The article consists of three parts. First section reviews the goals of the Lisbon Strategy. In the second part the regional operational programmess for Voivodships are described. The third part contains the analysis of the alloca- tion of the Polish Voivodships’ operational programmes funds per categories connected with the Lisbon Strategy objectives for the cohesion policy pro- gramming period 2007-2013.
