Professor Jerzy Lis to chair the Scientific Council for Strategic Development Directions of Małopolska

The AGH University Rector, Professor Jerzy Lis, has been elected Chair of the Scientific Council for Strategic Development Directions of Małopolska. The Council is an important body connecting the scientific, economic, and local government communities of Malopolska to meet and discuss important and strategic issues for the future of the region.

Representatives of the Scientific Council for Strategic Development Directions of Małopolska participate in numerous events key for the region. This respectable group of outstanding academics from various fields has become an important factor in the dynamic development of Małopolska. The council's activity is also part of the Voivodeship Development Strategy “Małopolska 2030.”

The Scientific Council for the Strategic Development of Małopolska was inaugurated mid-2021. The bilateral agreements signed at that time in Krakow's Sukiennice and further meetings with the rectors of Małopolska's higher education institutions created a strong foundation for long-term cooperation between the Małopolska region and the region's higher education institutions. It was the first such initiative in Poland.

The new chair was elected during a session of the Council that took place on 28 August 2024 under the lead of Łukasz Smółka, Marshal of the Małopolska Region.
