Abstract

Abstract Social innovation (SI), which is known as an alternative practice for solving social problems, can be implemented by various actors, including nongovernmental organisations (NGOs) and public institutions. This article addresses the implementation of SIs by public institutions in rural areas of Poland. Its aim is to answer two questions: 1) Does cooperation with NGOs distinguish rural public institutions in Poland that have implemented SIs from those that have not? 2) Does the level of human and financial resources of NGOs affect the level of cooperation between public institutions and NGOs from rural gminas? The results of an internet survey conducted on a random sample of 330 public institutions and 400 one-to-one interviews conducted on a random sample of NGOs from rural communes (rural gminas) are presented to answer the research questions posed. According to the findings, collaboration between public institutions and NGOs does not distinguish institutions that implemented SI and those that did not. In addition, the level of human and financial resources of NGOs was not a factor in determining whether or not public institutions cooperated with NGOs.

公共机构与非政府组织合作促进后社会主义波兰农村社会创新

社会创新作为解决社会问题的另一种实践方式，可以由包括非政府组织(ngo)和公共机构在内的各种行动者实施。本文讨论了波兰农村地区公共机构实施SIs的情况。它的目的是回答两个问题:1)与非政府组织的合作是否区分了波兰农村公共机构是否实施了si ?2)公益组织的人力财力水平是否会影响公益机构与农村ngo的合作水平?本文给出了对330个公共机构随机抽样的网络调查结果和对农村公社(rural gminas)的非政府组织随机抽样的400个一对一访谈的结果，以回答所提出的研究问题。根据调查结果，公共机构和非政府组织之间的合作并没有区分实施科学探究的机构和没有实施科学探究的机构。此外，非政府组织的人力和财力水平并不是决定公共机构是否与非政府组织合作的一个因素。
