Summary/Abstract: Sustainable development is one of the major challenges of the modern world. Its implementation should be monitored at every level of management, with particular emphasis on monitoring the implementation of this concept at the local level (gminas and powiats) and regional (voivodships). The basic assessing tool are indicators to provide a statistical picture of a given territorial unit. Within the Local Data Bank (BDL) a universal module was created, which is designed to monitor sustainable development at a level lower than the country. The reference point were indices developed by the Eurostat. Module developed in the BDL is not a set of monitoring a specific strategy development at local and regional level but is a basic set of indicators for analysis of sustainable development and allows to evaluate and compare local government units.
