The article puts focus on the main trends of the Polish-Ukrainian cooperation on the self-governance reform under the condition of the current crisis in Ukraine. Particular emphasis is put on the role and effectiveness of the Eastern Partnership Initiative as well as the initiatives on territorial cooperation. Furthermore, the role of Polish and Ukrainian non-governmental organizations in the reforming process in Ukraine is taken into consideration. Finally, the article makes an attempt to answer the question whether Polish experience of the self-governance reform might be beneficial on the Ukrainian ground as regards creating favorable conditions for the decentralization processes.
