W artykule poruszono problematykę związaną z kooperacją (współpracą) międzysektorową w polskiej gospodarce komunalnej, w szczególności kwestie związane z partnerstwem publiczno-prywatnym (jako formą współpracy samorządów z sektorem prywatnym), a także finansowymi i pozafinansowymi formami współpracy samorządów z organizacjami pozarządowymi (NGO). Analiza kooperacji JST z sektorem prywatnym w ramach PPP wykazała, że jest ona rzadko wykorzystywana do realizacji zadań z zakresu gospodarki komunalnej. Współpraca miała głównie charakter finansowy, co może wskazywać, że NGO są jedynie realizatorami usług komunalnych, a nie aktywnymi uczestnikami procesów decyzyjnych.

The article raises the issues of intersectoral cooperation in the Polish municipal economy, in particular issues of public-private partnership PPP (as a form of cooperation between local governments and private sector), as well as financial and non-financial forms of cooperation between local governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The analysis of local governments cooperation with private sectors under the PPP shows that it is rarely used for the implementation of municipal economy tasks. In turn, the local government cooperation with NGOs is more common. The cooperation have mainly financial nature, which may indicate that the NGOs are only implementers of municipal services, and they are not an active participants of decision-making processes.
