During the workshop at the Maritime University of Szczecin, we welcomed representatives of village offices as well as non-governmental organisations of the Policki District, students, teachers as well as officials from the district office in Police.
Our special thanks are extended to Mr. Andrzej Bednarek, the Policki District Governor for having courage to participate in the meeting which must have been far from easy.
We would also like to offer our thanks to all participants for their activity, work at the grassroots and good fun, which, we hope, will transfer theory into practice and talking into acting.
Four teams worked on the following issues:
1. How to improve communication between the district office and the inhabitants in such a way that they know the competences of the office and do not mistake it with the commune office?
2. How to strengthen the communication between the district office and non-governmental organisations in the district?
3. How to improve customer service in the Policki District?
4. How to use bottom-up initiatives for mutual communication between the district office and the inhabitants?
