Summary/Abstract: Spatial planning for metropolitan areas in Poland is the subject of intense debate among practitioners and theorists. It is part of a broader trend in the discussion on integrated planning for functional areas; which has been introduced by the National Concept of Territorial Development [Koncepcja Przestrzennego… 2011]. This text presents the approaches and methods used for the establishment of planning cooperation in Wroclaw Metropolitan Area in the recent years. In the absence of a clear legal solution and unified methodology building of partnerships and innovative tools has been based on collaboration projects financed from European funds. This cooperation became a laboratory for planning in the functional areas and its effects will be used in the future.
