The purpose of this paper is to present the possibilities of EU financial support to Polish agriculture and rural areas in the context of their multi-functional development. This direction of evolution should be stimulated by instruments restructuring and modernizing agriculture. These ideas are included in the strategie documents which define the adoptation of the EU cohesion policy and Common Agriculture Policy (CAP) in Poland. This refers to the National Development Plan (for two time periods: one document for 2004-2006 and the other one for 2007-2013), the Sector Operational Program “Restructuring and modernizing the food sector and rural development” and the Rural Development Plan. These plans are based on co-financing investments in agriculture and its environment, together with the realization of widely comprehended rural development programs — subsidies for farmers who implement appropriate measures. The efficiency of their implementation and conseąuently the possibilities of receiving huge EU financial transfers are conditional on the effective functioning of Polish institutions and administration

Participatory budgets are a popular form of residents’ co-deciding about public space andquality of life in their cities. Projects submitted to participatory budgets respond to needs such as recreation,health, communication and safety. This article evaluates the projects from 2016-2018 of the WroclawParticipatory Budget in terms of aspects related to the wider issue of the natural capital and climate change.The results obtained indicate that despite increasing financial outlays on projects that can contribute tostrengthening environmental and climatic aspects, the share of investments directly targeted at their implementation is relatively small. A total of 201 projects were analyzed, of which 12% directly and 18% indirectly referred to issues related to the natural capital and/or climate change.Budżety obywatelskie stanowią popularną formę współdecydowania mieszkańców o przestrzeni publicznej oraz jakości życia w mieście. Zgłaszane do budżetów obywatelskich projekty odpowiadają na wiele istotnych potrzeb dotyczących m. in. rekreacji, zdrowia, komunikacji czy bezpieczeństwa. W niniejszym artykule dokonano oceny projektów z lat 2016-2018 Wrocławskiego Budżetu Obywatelskiego pod kątem aspektów związanych z szeroko rozumianym kapitałem naturalnym oraz zmianami klimatu. Otrzymane wyniki wskazują, że pomimo rosnących nakładów finansowych na projekty mogące przyczyniać się do wzmacniania aspektów środowiskowych i klimatycznych, udział inwestycji nakierowanych wprost na ich realizację, jest stosunkowo nieduży. Łącznie przeanalizowano 201 projektów, z czego 12% bezpośrednio, a 18% pośrednio dotyczyło zagadnień związanych z kapitałem naturalnym i/lub zmianami klimatu
