One of the tasks of the Statistical Office in Wrocław is to conduct research, analytical, and publishing activities in the field of cross-border and euroregional statistics.
This activity has been conducted since 1991, coinciding with the establishment of the first Euroregion in Poland’s border areas – the Nysa Euroregion. The key partners in this cooperation include the Saxony State Statistical Office and the Czech Statistical Office Representation in Liberec. The first meeting of statisticians from the Statistical Office in Wrocław (then the Voivodship Statistical Office in Jelenia Góra) with representatives of statistical offices from northern Czechia and Saxony took place on November 21, 1991.
The cooperation involves developing and providing comparative statistical information and analyses of social and economic phenomena occurring in the neighbouring border areas. The main recipients of these studies are euroregion secretariats, local governments, labour offices, local media and academic institutions.
The Nysa Euroregion plays a significant supporting role in this collaboration by organizing meetings of statisticians in each of the participating countries and providing translation services. The cooperation is based on the principles of voluntariness, parity and rotation, with each party taking turns hosting working meetings.
Between 1991 and 2024, approximately 110 working meetings of Polish, Czech and German statisticians have taken place within the working structures of the Nysa Euroregion.
As a result of this uninterrupted 34-year cooperation, around 80 joint statistical-descriptive publications and reports have been produced, presenting selected aspects of the social and economic situation in the Polish-Czech-Saxon border area.
