The Polish Presidential Elections 2025: Can the Democratic Coalition Complete Their 2023 Victory?

It is safe to say that the outcome of the second round of the Polish presidential elections, scheduled for June 1, 2025, will determine the potential for significant structural reforms in the country in the coming years. The two candidates are: Karol Nawrocki, officially declared as a ‘civic candidate’ (though for all practical purposes associated with the previous government’s Law and Justice party, Prawo i Sprawiedliwość – PiS), and Rafał Trzaskowski representing the main coalition party in the current government, the Civic Platform (Platforma Obywatelska), which came to power after the parliamentary elections in October 2023. In the first round of the 2025 presidential election, which took place on May 18, 2025, Rafał Trzaskowski came first with 31.4 percent of the votes and Karol Nawrocki second with 29.5 percent. This policy brief explores the mechanisms through which the Polish President can influence current policy, using past economic initiatives as illustrative examples. It also examines the results of the first round of the election in greater depth and highlights key areas where reforms would likely face significant obstacles, were Karol Nawrocki to win the decisive second round.

Główną propozycją w obszarze polityki podatkowej kandydata Koalicji Obywatelskiej na Prezydenta RP Rafała Trzaskowskiego jest powrót do jednej z najważniejszych deklaracji przedwyborczych Koalicji z wyborów parlamentarnych 2023, czyli podniesienie kwoty wolnej od podatku do 60,000 zł rocznie. Szczegółową analizę tej propozycji, przedstawiliśmy w 2023 roku w komentarzu “Poszukując kompromisu: podatkowe deklaracje przedwyborcze i możliwości ich realizacji”.

Three Years On – Ukrainians in Poland after Russia’s 2022 Invasion

The wave of Ukrainian refugees which followed the full-scale Russian invasion on February 24th, 2022, was in Poland met with unprecedented levels of support and solidarity. According to data from the Polish Household Budget Survey, 70 percent of households offered some help, and over 10 percent (1.3 million households) provided direct personal assistance. Overall, by early 2025, 1.9 million refugees had registered in the dedicated social security registry (PESEL-UKR system) and 1 million continue to be registered as residing in Poland. Drawing on other data sources we argue in this policy paper that the latter figure is highly overstated, giving rise to unjustified criticisms of low school enrolment among Ukrainian children, and low rates of labour market activity among adult refugees. We highlight the risks that these critical voices may become prominent in the ongoing campaign ahead of the Polish presidential elections. During the crucial months of prospective peace negotiations, when presidential candidates are appealing for voters’ support, we argue that the public debate in Poland concerning Ukraine and Ukrainian refugees, ought to be grounded in reliable evidence.

Christmas Time in Poland Through the Lens of Gender Equality

In the Christmas season we examine how people in Poland allocate their precious minutes in the days before and during the holidays. We use data from the Polish Time Use Survey and show that, in several aspects of time use, Christmas is indeed special, and that there are notable differences in how men and women allocate their time to work and pleasure. Women spend more time than men on household chores and preparing meals, and in the latter case the imbalance is particularly striking: on average women spend two hours more per day cooking ahead of the holidays.
