A Depressed Region: A Map Without a Future

Poverty is a state of being. Depression is a mechanism—one that operates over a long period of time. It is no longer merely stagnation or a recession. Depression reflects the absence of any possibility for change. Poverty shows how much a region has today. Depression shows whether it is capable of shaping its own future. These are fundamentally different questions that require fundamentally different answers.

The global market could be flooded with oil — IEA

Demand for oil is falling faster than expected. Global supply in the oil market could significantly exceed demand if lasting peace is established in the Middle East. The global oil market could face an oversupply if the agreement between the U.S. and Iran remains in effect and shipments through the Strait of Hormuz begin to resume. This is the conclusion reached by the International Energy Agency (IEA) in its monthly report.

The Ministry of Family, Labor and Social Protection has submitted a report according to which the minimum will be 4,927 zloty (1,161 euros) from the beginning of 2027.
