Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study was to identify regularities in relation to organizations implementing cross-border cooperation projects and their changes over time. The analysis covered a total of more than 2.4 thousand organizations implementing about 1.5 thousand cooperation projects. In the analysis statistical description methods were used. The article is one of the first comparative analyses of cross-border cooperation projects implemented on all Polish borders in two consecutive EU programming periods: 2007-2013 and 2014-2020. The study showed a very high variability of organizations involved in cooperation over time, which, however, was accompanied by relative stability of the generic structures of these organizations and stability of spatial structures. The latter was conditioned by the factor of distance from the state border and the existence of large urban centres. The results obtained are an important contribution to a better understanding of the challenges of implementing EU cooperation policy.
