This article provides an overview of the problems and challenges that arise in the field of public health in Poland. In the first part it discusses general issues, i.e. the definition of public health, its essential operations according to WHO and core services, as well as public spending on preventive services. Next, it examines some aspects of the public health practice, with special attention given to planning, evaluation and good practices, as well as recommendations for public health capacity improvements. The author claims that it is necessary to standardize the terminology and develop tools, standards and work protocols regarding public health.

The paper presents an evaluation of an inquiry-based learning programme for primary school pupils in the Czech Republic. The programme consisted of two parts: in the first part pupils acquired and practised inquiry skills, in the second they applied them to three independent inquiry-based learning lessons. Both pupils and teachers were highly satisfied with the programme. According to the pre/post non-equivalent experimental/control group designed evaluation research, the pupils who participated in the programme significantly improved their understanding of the research cycle representing the basic logic of scientific work. No such change appeared in the control groups. The programme influenced both boys and girls. Even though no significant gender differences for the groups of the 4th-5th grades and 6th-7th grades were found, the girls from the 8th-9th grade received a better score than the boys in both pre- and post-testing.

W artykule zbadano bezpośredni wpływ wprowadzenia programu świadczeń Rodzina 500+ na podaż pracy gospodarstw domowych w Polsce. Ze względu na uniwersalny charakter programu standardowe metody ewaluacji programów mogą zwracać niezgodne oszacowania. W celu zachowania pożądanych własności statystycznych w artykule zaproponowano nowe podejście łączące strategię estymacji difference- -in-difference (DID) z wagami bilansującymi rozkłady zmiennych towarzyszących (tzw. CBPS, Imai, Ratkovic [2014]). Podejście to rozwiązuje potencjalne problemy z brakiem spełnienia równoległych trendów, a także zmniejsza skalę obciążenia wynikającego z różnic pomiędzy jednostkami pobierającymi i niepobierającymi świadczeń. Wyniki wskazują na zaniedbywalny wpływ programu na podaż pracy w kwartałach następujących bezpośrednio po wprowadzeniu programu.

I investigate the immediate effects of the introduction of a large-scale child benefit programme on the labour supply of household members in Poland. Due to non-random eligibility and the universal character of the programme, standard evaluation estimators may be inconsistent. In order to address this issue, I propose an approach that combines difference-in-difference (DID) propensity score based methods with the covariate balancing propensity score (CBPS) approach developed by Imai and Ratkovic [2014]. The DID estimators exploit the time dimension to uncover the causal effect of interest. The CBPS method is expected to significantly reduce the bias resulting from systematic differences between treated and untreated subpopulations. I also account for potential heterogeneity among households by focusing on comparisons between locally defined subpopulations of individuals, which jointly provide a comprehensive view on the overall impact. I find that on average previously employed mothers maintain their labour supply although there are heterogeneous weak responses depending on the age of the youngest children. Additionally, mothers who did not work before the introduction of the programme are even less likely to do so having received the benefit. The fathers’ labour supply remained mostly unaffected by the programme, with the exception of previously unemployed fathers, who tend to work more often having received the benefits. This finding may suggest that the programme strengthens the traditional division of household roles, with the male being the main earner.

Artykuł koncentruje się na zagadnieniach związanych z wdrażaniem programu mentoringu do organizacji. W tekście scharakteryzowano wyzwania towarzyszące kolejnym etapom wprowadzania programu w firmie Sanofi. Opisano cele programu, działania edukacyjne poprzedzające jego wdrożenie, dobór par mentor–podopieczny, przebieg sesji mentoringowych. Szczególną uwagę poświęcono ewaluacji podjętych działań, w tym określeniu czynników sukcesu, leżących zarówno po stronie mentorów, jak i po stronie uczestników programu.

This article concentrates on questions related to implementing a mentoring program in an organization. It characterizes the challenges accompanying successive phases of the introduction of such a program at Sanofi. It describes program goals, educational efforts preceding program implementation, selection of mentor–mentee pairings, and the course of the mentoring sessions. Special attention was devoted to evaluating actions taken, including the defining of success factors on the sides of both the mentors and program participants.
