Abstract

Voivodship self-government in Poland plays an important role in the programming and carrying out voivodship development policy. The government prepares various documents, including regional development strategies and regional operational programmes to ensure sustainable development. Simultaneously these documents constitute a basis for making European funds available. Preparation of well-thought-out, complete, and coherent documents, as well as the monitoring their implementation require using figures describing different social and economic phenomena. A significant number of these figures comes from the public statistics system. The necessity of making use of hard data is of special importance right now, as the European Union both requires the presentation of progress in the efficiency of using European funds within the sustainable policy framework and makes future fund transfers dependent on the progress in achieving previously-set development goals. The aim of the article is to present the scope and the way of using statistical data in development documents on the basis of certain strategies and programmes from a Podlaskie voivodship area.
