Description:

The project will include the detailed analysis of municipal income and expenditure during the Covid-19 pandemic and its aftermath. The analysis will focus particularly on the detailed evaluation of data on municipal expenditure in the social field and social services and the range of priorities of municipal authorities both in general, i.e. across the various agendas for which municipalities are responsible, and specifically with concern to municipal social policies.

The aim of the project is to collect and evaluate data on the income and expenditure of municipal authorities and information on the priorities of these authorities during a period that was significantly impacted by two social phenomena that severely affected the management and operation of municipalities. The research will employ a combination of the analysis of existing data and its comparison with information provided by several different groups of representatives of municipalities in order to allow for the comparison of the two data sources aimed at forming a more comprehensive picture of the monitored issue.
