Sustaining the water-energy-food nexus for the future requires new governance approaches and joint management across sectors. The challenges to the implementation of the nexus are many, but not insurmountable. These include trade-offs between sectors, difficulties of communication across the science-policy interface, the emergence of new vulnerabilities resulting from implementation of policies, and the perception of high social and economic costs. In the context of the Sustainability in the W-E-F Nexus conference May 19-20, 2014, the session on ‘Governance and Management of the Nexus: Structures and Institutional Capacities’ discussed these problems as well as tools and solutions to nexus management. The session demonstrated three key findings: 1. Trade-offs in the Water-Energy-Food Nexus should be expanded to include the varied and shifting social and power relations; 2. Sharing knowledge between users and policy makers promotes collective learning and science-policy-stakeholder communication; and 3. Removing subsidies or seeking the ‘right price’ for domestic resources vis à vis international markets is not always useful; rather the first imperative is to gauge current and future costs at the national scale.

The article reflects upon the concept of public-social partnership. Developments within the public sector, in particular shared public management and the aim to initiate civic and civic association activities associated with it, is the background of these considerations. Based on them, partnership is identified as a form of collaboration between the administration and non-government organisations featuring attributes that facilitate reinforcement of competences and performance of public sector operations. It is also connected to the concept of institutional capacity and development of Polish local government units. The primary objective of the article is to assess the functioning of Polish local government units in the area of public-social partnership as well as to analyse its importance to the development of their institutional capacity. The Institutional Development Planning method has been used to accomplish the objective.

The article presents selected issues related to building the institutional capacity of Polish cities in light of contemporary challenges in the field of urban renewal and improving the quality of urban space based on attracting human, social and creative capital. The research purpose is the identification and characterization of the main features and problems of the functioning of the urban institutional system in Polish realities, in which the integrated territorial approach, participation and effective implementation of learning processes should constitute the essential elements of the innovative institutional potential of urbanized units. One of the important research findings presented in the article is the statement that strengthening the institutional capacity of Polish cities by building different organizational forms, characterized by decentralization, multifaceted management, networking, innovation, creativity and an eco-friendly approach, sets the framework for a new urbanity.

W artykule przedstawiono wybrane zagadnienia dotyczące budowania zdolności instytucjonalnej polskich miast w świetle współczesnych wyzwań w zakresie odnowy miast oraz poprawy jakości przestrzeni miejskiej opartej na atrakcyjnym kapitale ludzkim, społecznym i kreatywnym. Celem badawczym jest identyfikacja i charakterystyka głównych cech i problemów funkcjonowania miejskiego systemu instytucjonalnego w polskich realiach, w którym zintegrowane podejście terytorialne, partycypacja oraz skuteczna implementacja procesów uczenia się stanowić powinny zasadnicze elementy innowacyjnego potencjału instytucjonalnego jednostek zurbanizowanych. Jednym z istotnych wniosków badawczych zaprezentowanych w artykule jest stwierdzenie, iż wzmocnienie zdolności in stytucjonalnej polskich miast poprzez budowanie odmiennych form organizacyjnych, charakteryzujących się decentralizacją, wielopłaszczyznowym zarządzaniem, usieciowieniem, innowacyjnością, kreatywnością i podejściem eco-friendly, wyznacza ramy nowej miejskości.
