Abstract
Local and Regional Policy in the Light of Depopulation – Example of Silesian
Voivodeship. Decreasing number of population along with demographic ageing create significant
developing challenges in the labour market, in housing, social infrastructure, education and
in many other areas. This applies in particular to the areas in which significant intensification
of depopulation is already observed or expected to occur. Therefore, it should be considered
when local and regional policies are being created, and it should be reflected in development
strategies formulated for each area.
The goal of the article is to determine whether the formulated development strategies reflect
the real needs arising from the observed social processes and how precisely they reflect local
and regional policies. This problem is illustrated by the example of the Silesia Voivodeship.
