Urząd Marszałkowski Województwa Zachodniopomorskiego

What Urząd Marszałkowski Województwa Zachodniopomorskiego does

Urząd Marszałkowski Województwa Zachodniopomorskiego is the regional self-government administrative office of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship in northwestern Poland, established in 1999 under the Polish Act of June 5, 1998 on the self-government of the voivodeship. Headquartered in Szczecin at ul. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego 40, with three additional office locations in Szczecin (ul. Mazowiecka, ul. Mickiewicza) and a branch office in Koszalin, the office operates with approximately 313 staff organized into ~30 departments and bureaus. Its statutory mandate covers regional development coordination, EU fund absorption and distribution, healthcare, education, transport infrastructure, environmental protection, social policy, culture, and tourism for the entire voivodeship (17 powiaty and 114 gminas).

The office runs a layered digital ecosystem comprising the main wzp.pl portal, the BIP (Biuletyn Informacji Publicznej) public information bulletin, the e-usługi portal integrated with the national ePUAP electronic delivery platform, the dedicated EU funds portal funduszeue.wzp.pl co-managed with Wojewódzki Urząd Pracy, the RPO WZ portal, the Regionalna Infrastruktura Informacji Przestrzennej (RIIP) geospatial data platform, the rowery.wzp.pl bicycle tourism system, and a business/innovation portal. It also oversees 16 wholly-owned operating subsidiaries spanning culture (Zamek Książąt Pomorskich, Muzeum Narodowe, Opera na Zamku, Teatr Polski, Bałtycki Teatr Dramatyczny, Ośrodek Teatralny Kana), libraries (Książnica Pomorska), heritage (Biuro Dokumentacji Zabytków), science (Morskie Centrum Nauki), rural ecology (Ogrody Przelewice), social policy, health, education, shared services, and the Zachodniopomorski Fundusz Filmowy Pomerania Film.

The business model is public administration rather than commercial: the office is funded through state budget transfers, regional self-government revenues, and EU structural funds (RPO WZ 2014-2020 and 2021-2027, Interreg, Krajowy Plan Odbudowy). Services to residents, entrepreneurs, NGOs, and local governments are provided free at point of use through self-serve digital channels, a Main Point of European Funds Information (PIFE) for consultative support, and in-person service windows. Distribution is event-driven (Pol'and'Rock Festival, trade missions, OZE conferences) and community-led, with multi-channel social presence under the Pomorze Zachodnie brand (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, X). Leadership is vested in Marshal Olgierd Geblewicz and Vice-Marshals Jakub Kowalik and Anna Bańkowska, with the office serving the Management Board and Regional Assembly (Sejmik).
