Wykorzystanie partnerstwa publiczno‑prywatnego w realizacji inwestycji samorządowych
The Use of Public‑Private Partnership in Local Government Investments

Summary/Abstract: The participation of private partners in the implementation of public tasks contributes above all to increasing the effectiveness of management in the public sector and accelerating the development of territorial units. Public-private partnership (PPP) is a tool that supports infrastructure development while reducing public expenditure. First PPP deals were made in 2009. Since then local government units remained the main initiatiors of the projects. The article aims to assess the use of public-private partnership in Poland in the years 2009–2019. The study also takes into the account the obstacles which impede the development of PPP in Poland. Local governments have implemented the largest number of projects in the field of transport infrastructure in Poland. The most active were public entities located in the regions with the best economic development. The obstacles that limit the PPP initiative are mostly financial, legal, attitudinal. Lack of knowledge and skills also obstructs the development of PPP. Overcoming these barriers requires increasing knowledge of PPP projects in order to promote public-private cooperation as a modern way of implementing public tasks.
