The Development Aid for the Agricultural Sector of African, Caribbean and Pacific CountriesâDeterminants and Allocation
2025, SmoliĆska-Bryza, Kinga, Kiryluk-Dryjska, Ewa
We propose a method for allocating Official Development Assistance (ODA) to the agricultural sector of African Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries based on objectively measured indicators of the development of the economies determined for the period of 2010â2022. These indicators are calculated from statistical data using factor analysis. They are then implemented in a linear programming model to allocate the budget for ACP agriculture. The results show that the proposed approach allocates funds according to the assumed logic, supporting countries in the low and very low development classes. The research conducted can contribute to the discussion on the allocation of development support to the agricultural sector by potential donors while analyzing different assumptions. This study can also serve as a prelude to researching the phenomenon of increasing efficiency in the agricultural sector in the context of potential economic development paths for the analyzed countries.

Regionalne zrĂłĆŒnicowanie poziomu antropopresji na Ćrodowiskowe uwarunkowania rozwoju w Polsce
2022, JĂłzefowicz, Karolina, SmoliĆska-Bryza, Kinga
Zasoby Ćrodowiskowe stanowiÄ czÄĆÄ bogactwa narodowego, sÄ uwarunkowaniem rozwoju lokalnego i regionalnego, umiejscawianym na pĆaszczyĆșnie elementĂłw wpĆywajÄ cych na jakoĆci ĆŒycia mieszkaĆcĂłw oraz oĆŒywienie regionu. W odpowiedzi na globalne wyzwania zwiÄ zane z zasobami Ćrodowiskowymi tworzone sÄ odrÄbne polityki Ćrodowiskowe, wdraĆŒane i powiÄ zane z innymi politykami rozwojowymi. Celem artykuĆu jest identyfikacja zrĂłĆŒnicowania gospodarowania zasobami Ćrodowiskowymi w polskich wojewĂłdztwach. Zakres czasowy badaĆ obejmuje 2004 i 2019 r., a zakres przestrzenny 16 wojewĂłdztw. W postÄpowaniu badawczym wyodrÄbniono cztery dziedziny Ćadu Ćrodowiskowego: (1) zasoby wody i gospodarka odpadami, (2) uĆŒytkowanie gruntĂłw i biorĂłĆŒnorodnoĆÄ, (3) energia oraz (4) ochrona powietrza i klimatu, w ramach ktĂłrych dokonano pomiaru ich zrĂłĆŒnicowania. Zaproponowana metoda TOPSIS umoĆŒliwiĆa liniowe uporzÄ dkowanie wojewĂłdztw w kaĆŒdej dziedzinie. W ogĂłlnym zaĆoĆŒeniu moĆŒna przyjÄ Ä, ĆŒe nastÄ piĆ progres w poziomie gospodarowania zasobami Ćrodowiskowymi w obrÄbie kaĆŒdej z dziedzin. Zaproponowana metoda badawcza w poĆÄ czeniu z uporzÄ dkowaniem w ramach klas typologicznych ujawniĆa w wielu przypadkach stabilny poziom gospodarowania we wskazanych obszarach, ktĂłry nie ulegĆ wyraĆșnym zmianom w badanych latach. Realizacja zaĆoĆŒonego celu badawczego pozwoliĆa dostrzec zrĂłĆŒnicowane podejĆcie w gospodarowaniu zasobami Ćrodowiskowymi w wojewĂłdztwach, co moĆŒna uznaÄ za zjawisko korzystne. ĆwiadczyÄ to moĆŒe o zdywersyfikowanym podejĆciu do kwestii Ćrodowiskowych i rĂłwnowaĆŒenia skali gospodarowania.

Winners and Losers of the CAPâs Rural Development Policy in Poland
2022, Kiryluk-Dryjska, Ewa, WiÄckowska, Barbara, SmoliĆska-Bryza, Kinga
The purpose of this study was to identify territorial clusters of Polish municipalities whose rural residents demonstrated higher or lower interest in the four programs of the CAPâs rural development policy compared to the countryâs average interest. The clusters were identified on an aggregate basis and described with synthetic indexes of agriculture and rural development. The Moranâs global spatial autocorrelation coefficient was used to check for spatial autocorrelation. The results demonstrated that the support offered under the rural development programs covered by this analysis was higher in the regions with well-developed agricultural structures, while the areas with structural defects and the areas in need of development had lower-than-average levels of applications for all programs (regardless of their objectives). These findings call for a clear strategy to change the unfavorable structures in Polish agriculture. Otherwise, the regional development gaps in Polish agriculture will only deepen under these programs.

Regional Analysis of Socio-Economic Development: The Case of Poland
2025, SmoliĆska-Bryza, Kinga, Okereke, Obinna, Anyebe, Daniel
This article analyzes and evaluates the levels of socio-economic development of Polish voivodeships in two periods, 2010â2012 and 2020â2022. The purpose of this study was to outline regional disparities in development across the regions of Poland. To achieve the purpose of this study, 12 diagnostic characteristics were used, which were systematized by economic and social categories. Using the TOPSIS method, provinces were grouped, distinguishing between regions with the highest, high, low, and lowest levels of development. The approach adopted in this study identified changes in the processes of socio-economic development of Polish voivodeships in the analyzed years, highlighting clear spatial and structural differences. The findings can equip authorities in creating improved development plans and targeted responses to any shortcomings encountered.
