One of the most anticipated economic publications since 2020 is a joint report by the Warsaw School of Economics and the Economic Forum, in which researchers from the Warsaw School of Economics present the most important issues concerning the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. This comprehensive study provides an overview of socio-economic challenges, analyses and conclusions, summarizing the research conducted. The report of the Warsaw School of Economics and the Economic Forum is an in-depth and exhaustive analysis of the contemporary dilemmas faced by the CEE countries. It is also a proposal for solutions and recommendations that can be helpful in making decisions at the government and local government level.

The report is presented every year, on the day of the inauguration of the Economic Forum, organized by the Institute for Eastern Studies Foundation, where the Warsaw School of Economics has been acting as a strategic partner for several years. The Forum provides a platform for impartial debate on the most important political, economic, cultural and social issues.

The ranking is an analysis of the financial condition of all local government units in Poland, and since 2017 it has been periodically prepared by the Institute for Eastern Studies Foundation. It is prepared on the basis of financial statements submitted by local government units in cooperation with independent, reputable institutions: the National Council of Regional Chambers of Audit and the Cracow University of Economics (2017-2019) and the Wrocław University of Economics (2020-2023).

The younger generation of Poles faces different dilemmas than their parents’ generation—the creators of economic success after the 1990s. Not only are the vectors and perspectives of economic development changing, but also the value systems that guide us, which directly influence our attitudes and choices. That is why intergenerational dialogue plays a key role in building mutual understanding and a community based on the diverse value frameworks characteristic of each generation.

We are not just creating an event, but a platform where young leaders can find space to collaborate and shape responsible decisions. We believe that true leadership grows from relationships, cooperation, and the ability to unite around a common idea—and that is why we have created the platform called Young@Forum.
