  10. Research results

  11. Research results Synthetic indicator of social capital Based on data in the diagram below, it can be concluded that the following voivodeships are characterized by the largest social capital: Mazowieckie (rank 1), Lubelskie (rank 2), Pomorskie (rank 3), Świętokrzyskie (rank 4) and Podkarpackie (rank 5).

  12. Research results Liczba pracowników w organizacji pozarządowej Statistically, one of the surveyed NGO employs 3 full-time employees, 20 volunteers and 5 activists and social workers. By limiting the analysis of the employment issue to entities, which have demonstrated undertaking cooperation with individuals, the average number of employees in the designated groups is growing. The average number of full-time employees in organizations was 6; for volunteers it was 37 people, while for activists – 10 people.

  13. Research results Evaluation of the perception of non-governmental organizations, in PodlaskieVoivodeship The perception of the perception of non-governmental organizations in Podlaskievoivodeship, carried out by the representatives of this sector, is optimistic: 83% have considered that NGOs in PodlaskieVoivodeship are perceived positively (40% - very positively, 42.8% - rather positively). Negative ratings almost do not appear (only 2% of the respondents indicated rather negatively), and 15.3% were neutral.

  14. Research results Evaluation of the activities of non-governmental organizations in PodlaskieVoivodeship In a similar way the NGO representatives evaluated the activity of PodlaskieVoivodeship: there were virtually no negative ratings (just 0.5% of the answers were rather well), and 15.5% were neutral. Other NGO representatives (84%) evaluated the activities of the third sector in PodlaskieVoivodeship as positive, with the majority of these ratings were ratherpositive(52.8%) than definitely positive (31.3%).

  15. Research results Evaluation of co-operation of organizations with other partners The level of cooperation of non-governmental organizations with entities from other sectors is evaluated positively: very positive and positive ratings were in the majority of NGO representatives, with the relatively little percentage applied to private sector (71.1%), and the largest percentage applied to public sector (79%). Co-operation with other non-governmental organizations was also highly rated and the percentage of highly positive answers was 73.6%.

  16. Research results Sources of financing the activities of non-governmental organizations The table presents share of funding from different sources in the budgets of non-governmental organizations. State funding constitute the average of 21.03% of the organization's budget, commune's funding is 18.94%, funding from the private sector is 17.61%, funding obtained from sources other than those listed in the cafeteria-style checklist is 16.95%, and public collections constitute the average of 12.26% of the total budget. Other parts of NGO budgets are EU funds (9.03%) and international programmes (4.12%).

  17. Research results The most important course of activities related to developing social capital in non-governmental organizations in PodlaskieVoivodeship According to the surveyed representatives of non-governmental organizations, there is one dominant representatives course of activities related to developing social capital. The development of socio-economic dialogue was pointed out relatively frequently (28.3%), social participation and impact on the lives of the citizens less frequently (20,3%), as well as social communication and the use of cultural and creative potential (18.8%) or the development of infrastructure for culture, tourism and sport (17%).

  18. Research results Types of activities aimed at strengthening social capital undertaken in a non-governmental organization The responses of the NGO representatives indicate the concentration of the third sector's activities in the area of providing information – it is rendered by 59% of the surveyed organizations. Much lessprovide all kinds of assistance: psychological aid (29.5%), legal aid (24.5 %) or financial aid (20.8%). Even less non-governmental organizations conduct vocational training (15%), and only 4% of them promote the development of the so-called soft skills.

  19. Research results Knowledge of specific non-governmental organizations More than half of the respondents (55%) declared in the course of the survey that they are able to provide names of the specific non-governmental organizations. The high value of this indicator has been affected by primarily by the answers of men, among which 60% replied affirmatively (for women, this value was more than 9% lower).

  20. Research results Experience in functioning in non-governmental organizations Despite a fairly high awareness related to the activities of the third sector, more than three quarters (77%) of the surveyed respondents from PodlaskieVoivodeship claim that they have no experience in functioning in such entities. Almost 14% of the surveyed declare that they have withdrawn from the previously carried out activities, and less than one in ten is an active member of NGOs.

  21. Research results Overall assessment of the NGOs operatingin the PodlaskieVoivodeship Most respondents from PodlaskieVoivodeship (45%) could not explicitly assess the activities of non-governmental organizations in the region – this correlates clearly with the lack of knowledge on this subject, declared by the equivalent percentage of respondents. It should be noted, however, that positive opinions on NGOs operating locally strongly outweigh the negative opinions (43% and 12% of cases, respectively).

  22. Research results The main role of non-governmental organizations For the residents of PodlaskieVoivodeship, social assistance is the key area for NGO activities – 35% of the respondents pointed out tackling social exclusion as the main roles of these actors. One in four respondents emphasizes that the essence of the third sector should be to offset deficits in social policy of the state (25% of responses), and one in five considers building social capital (21%) as far more important.

  23. Good practices

  24. Good practices EKOMOBILE - innovation of environmental education in Poland and a reference point in Polish-German cooperation for the sustainable development The aim of the project:to initiate the development of mobile environmental education in Poland. The project was to take lessons on ecology beyond the school walls. To implement this idea, ecomobiles were to be used; these were specially prepared vehicles, equipped with variety of thematically diverse materials and equipment for work in groups directly in the field. The idea was taken from Germany, where the first ecomobile was launched in 1987. WHY IT IS „GOOD”?: The development of environmental education and its forms seems to be particularly important from the point of view of developing social capital. Education is one of the cornerstones for building social capital; therefore, it seems that implementation of new forms of education is particularly important in this context.

  25. Dobre praktyki The activities of the Association of the Small Homeland Museum in Studziwody- The Association conducts activities related to an open-air museum, which was founded in 1993. The Podlasie and Polesie traditional folk music studio and youth song and dance ensemble operate at the museum. The Association also publishes "BielskiHostineć” periodical, as well as books and albums with songs and music. WHY IT IS „GOOD”?: It seems that in PodlaskieVoivodeship, which is located at the junction of several nations and cultures, it is particularly important to promote joint activities of a supra-regional and even transnational character. The specific cultural melting pot, which is present in Podlasie, needs special attention, as an extremely important element in the development of social capital.

  26. Dobre praktyki The ”Dream and act”Programme of the My DlaInnych [Us for Others] Association Goal of project: . Its aim is to organize leisure time for young people in a constructive way, activate young people and ensure the optimum conditions for developing their passions, realization of dreams and mastering the skill of creative collaboration in the same age group. The Programme is an example of collaboration between NGOs and local government, because it is financed by the Mayor of Białystok. The assumptions of the Programme are simple: young people aged 12-19 may come up with the idea of spending leisure time for themselves to the association, their friends which, upon the examination of the application (involving other representatives of the local communities in the project seems particularly important) will grant funding (in the amount of PLN 1,000) to implement the idea. WHY IT IS „GOOD”?: The Programme puts emphasis on cooperation and involvement of local communities, which appears to be particularly important in the context of social capital.

  27. Dobre praktyki The activities of the Drohiczyn Scientific Society- an organization takes actions to activate and organize the scientific community in Drohiczyn and the region of river Bug. The Society gathers people associated with the academic environment, it organizes conferences (nine up until now), scientific symposiums and it publishes books.The Society's activities focus on three voivodeships: Podlaskie, Lubelskie and Mazowieckie, and the primary objective is to create an intellectual basis for future research on multi-cultural traditions of Drohiczyn and above-mentioned voivodeships. WHY IT IS „GOOD”?: The Society's activities show that a rich scientific life, which is one of the elements of social capital, does not necessarily have to take place in large academic centres.
