Innowacje w usługach publicznych: współpraca Rad Działalności Pożytku Publicznego i samorządu terytorialnego
Public Sector Innovations: Co-operation between Public Benefit Boards and Local Government

Summary/Abstract: Searching for new ways of delivering public services means that research regarding the conditions for effective services delivery should be targeted not only at the internal aspects of the providers. It is equally important to study the practices of establishing and maintaining inter-organizational relationships, as well as the processes that makeup the context, in which the service is provided by a specific ecosystem (Osborne calls it services delivery landscape). This view is consistent with the observed tendency to move away from perceiving services as a duty of the State, but rather to appreciate collaborative practices between organizational actors (i.e. organizations from different sectors) and individual actors (i.e. residents, being service recipients).One of such organizational actors is the Public Benefit Councils (RDPP). The area and means of this entity can be classified asa social innovation undertaken in the activity of units of local self-government (JST). This paper presents opinion on the mutual relations between local government and the RDPP, elaborated as a result of the analysis of the results of the survey conducted among the representatives of both entities.
