Observatory’s mission

Through the establishment of the Observatory, the founding institutions can provide their communities with top-tier substantive support in navigating complex endeavours related to urban policy, the development of metropolitan institutions and policies, and other developmental initiatives. The quality of these efforts will shape the future of Silesia for generations to come, making it essential to engage all available intellectual resources in the region. The  Observatory of Urban and Metropolitan Processes was created precisely to facilitate access to these vital resources.

The Observatory strives to integrate the scientific and expert potential of its affiliated universities and research centres so as to put it at the disposal of local and regional authorities as well as the social and economic environment. The Observatory acts as a “one-stop shop solution” for all entities in need of reliable information and expert support

What sets us apart?

Our advantage lies in combining the knowledge and competencies of academics experienced in various fields within a structure that is operationally efficient, organizationally flexible, and responsive, thus ready to quickly meet the needs of stakeholders. The strength of the Observatory also lies in the very broad spectrum of issues addressed by our team of affiliated experts.
