Poland in Armenia

Before the pandemic, Poland’s economic performance was stellar: living standards were converging rapidly to the levels of the most advanced OECD countries, and the unemployment and poverty rates were at historically low levels, and well below the OECD average. As elsewhere, the COVID-19 crisis sharply disrupted the country’s development path. However, Poland has done well at limit-ing economic losses so far and we expect GDP to fall by 3.5% this year before rebounding by 2.9% in 2021 and 3.8% in 2022.

From 30/12/2020, regulations are in force that allow - under new additional principles - to work in Poland by: 1. doctors, 2. dentists, 3. nurses, 4. obstetricians, 5. paramedics, who obtained qualifications to practice their professions in non-EU states. Proceedings on granting consent to perform work in Poland in the above-mentioned professions will be simplified and the procedure will be significantly shortened.

A gold medal in the International Mathematical Olympiad, 4 silver medals in the International Biology Olympiad and 3 silver medals in the International Geography Olympiad and the International Chemistry Olympiad – these are the most important achievements of Polish students in the International Science Olympiads in 2019. In 2019, Polish students participated in a total of 8 international Olympiads and won as many as 30 medals: 1 gold medal, 19 silver medals and 10 bronze ones. Young mathematicians, who won as many as 6 medals during the competition in Great Britain, achieved a historic success. We would like to present a summary of our achievements in international science and interdisciplinary Olympiads in 2019.
