Introduction

The SDWP is a response to the challenges identified in the NSDC, providing for intervention measures conducive to spatial and functional integration of Western Poland, including the reconstruction of the Oder Waterway.

The SDWP is consistent and complementary with the objectives and priorities identified in the remaining eight integrated strategies, which include: the Strategy forlnnovationand EfficiencyoftheEconomy "Dynamie Poland 2020"¹⁷⁾,theTransport Development Strategy by 2020¹⁸⁾, the Humań Capital Development Strategy 2020¹⁹¹, the Social Capital Development Strategy 2020, the Strategy for Energy Security and the Environment 2020²⁰⁾, the Efficient State Strategy 2020²¹>, the National Security Strategy of the Republic of Poland²²', the Strategy of Sustainable Development of Rural areas 2012²³⁾, insofar as it relates to the objectives and intervention directions formulated in these strategies.

The SDWP, as a supra-regional strategy, does not duplicate or does not replace any of these national documents. At the same time, while maintaining complementarity with voivodeship development strategies, it covers issues of cooperation between voivodeship and takes action to expand opportunities for developing partnership relations between them. Assuming that the SDWP is not the sum of the five voivodeship development strategies, the document essentially ignores the problems and challenges of voivodeship naturę and scalę, focusing on supra-regional issues. Its supra-regional naturę is a prerequisite for the selection of the rangę of support most adequate for the macro-region. The level of supra-regional programming complements the support provided at national and regional level and directs the activities carried out at both levels of development management to issues relevant from the perspective of the macro-region. As a result, the essential tools for implementing the SDWP are the development programmes and operational programmes prepared at the national and regional level.
