The Lower Silesian Voivodeship is a region with relatively high social and economic disproportion between its territorial units. This diversification is due to many factors, including specialization, long-term mono-branching and ties with traditional sectors characterised by capital intensity, huge involvement of natural resources, low efficiency and negative environmental effects. The aim of the study is to determine what are the disproportions in the socio-economic development of Lower Silesia and whether the activation of post-mining areas in this region requires support as part of integrated just transition planning.
