IBS - Institute for Structural Research

The Institute for Structural Research (IBS) is an independent and politically neutral research foundation. Our studies focus on economic analysis and evaluating the consequences of public policies in the following areas: labour markets, demography, education, family policy, public finance as well as energy and climate. We rely on modern modelling, statistical, econometric and IT tools. We take great care to ensure our research is objective and based on sound methodology. Since our inception in 2006, we have conducted almost 200 research projects for such entities as the World Bank, OECD, various ministries, Chancelleries of the Prime Minister and President of the Republic of Poland, the National Bank of Poland, employers’ organisations as well as other associations and foundations. The Institute’s research findings are generally available, with two series of publications being specifically responsible for their dissemination: IBS Working Paper and IBS Policy Paper. All articles, reports and information about our projects and conferences is available at ibs.org.pl.
