Ladies and Gentlemen, the latest issue of the Mazovian Voivodeship Self-Government’s scientific publication MAZOWSZE Regional Studies contains materials from the conference entitled Building the Future of Mazovia Together. The date of the conference coincided with the start of work on updating the Development Strategy of the Mazovian Voivodeship and the Voivodeship Spatial Management Plan. The update of the documents is taking place in a peculiar situation, as the shape of the European Union budget for 2014-2020 is still unknown.

The article presents the results of a survey conducted in the Mazovian province on the trust of residents in the institutions of public life at the local level. These institutions included local government, schools, police, church and community organizations. The development of the Mazowieckie Voivodeship is fostered by a number of assets, including its location in the center of the country and the presence in the region of a metropolitan city such as Warsaw. Its administrative and political functions, the accumulation of business environment institutions, well-developed social infrastructure and the availability of highly qualified personnel are factors that attract capital and investors.

Spatial information is crucial to the creation of provincial development plans and strategies. In the era of widespread computerization, local government administration and spatial planning cannot remain indifferent to the needs and challenges. In addition to technological advances, what is also needed is a change in the way we think about spatial information, and various tools that will enable efficient management of this information.

If we want to manage our own and European funds in the future, we must have both a jointly developed strategy and a provincial spatial development plan. Both documents, on the basis of applicable law, are prepared by the provincial government. The strategy and plan are the basis for the operational management of programs and projects implemented at the regional level and created in cooperation with all partners.
