The article analyses the remedial processes (revitalization and village renewal) carried out by the municipalities of the Mazowieckie Voivodeship in the years 2004–2022, against the background of changing national conditions (adoption of the the Revitalisation Act of 9 October 2015) and EU policies: the cohesion policy and common agricultural policy. For this purpose, a survey was conducted, addressed to municipal governments, supplemented with desk research analysis. This study provided information on: the number of revitalisation programmes and village renewal plans, the types of areas where remedial actions are focused and their main problems, the nature of implemented actions (comprehensiveness and complementarity), as well as the most important revitalisation and village renewal projects, and also the amount of EU funding granted for remedial activities and the effects of their implementation.
