Four consecutive terms as the Mayor of Wrocław (2002-2018)

In 2002, with the support of incumbent Mayor of Wrocław, Bogdan Zdrojewski, the PO party (Platforma Obywatelska) and PIS (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość), Dutkiewicz won the first direct mayoral elections in Wrocław. In 2006, he successfully stood as an independent (endorsed by the PO-PIS coalition) and having secured 84.53% of Wrocław citizens votes (with 40,04% turnout) he ensured a landslide victory for himself in the first round. His result was the second best in the country. In 2010 he once more won the mayoral elections in the first round again, with approximately 72% of the vote, and has remained in office for a third term. In the same year President

appointed him a member of the National Development Council. In 2014, he ran again in the mayoral elections and won in the second round defeating PIS (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość) candidate Mirosława Stachowiak-Różecka. The run-off turnout reached almost 55% of eligible votes. Rafał Dutkiewicz's 16 years of service as the Mayor of Wrocław ended on 19 November 2018.


Business initiatives

From the beginning of his first term, one of the main goals Dutkiewicz had set was attracting domestic and foreign capital to Wrocław. As a result, the city saw the highest number of investments in its post-war history and the first European country with the Wrocław Agglomeration benefiting from over 400 thousand new jobs created by foreign and local business investors. These investments have become a pillar of the city's knowledge-based economy and start-ups choosing the Wrocław Technology Park as their operating basis. Wrocław became an attractive venue for the growing number of foreigners - approximately 200 thousand expats from over 120 countries decided to work and live in Wrocław Agglomeration (including over 100 thousand Ukrainians). During Dutkiewicz's tenures, Wrocław's GDP per capita doubled, and it was ranked the second city in Poland with the highest pace of economic growth. The unemployment rate continued to keep the lowering tendency: from 8% in 2006 to 1,9 % in 2018. According to 2018 statistics, Wrocław is ranked the third fastest growing city with Dublin and Prague at the head of the list of 200 European cities with populations above 250 thousand.


Wrocław key infrastructure projects and innovation initiatives (2002-2018)

During his mayoral term Dutkiewicz endorsed and led a range of activities aimed at promoting Wrocław as a hub of culture, a meeting place for a political debate and a destination for sport fans.

Other cultural initiatives launched during Dutkiewicz's mayoral term included the International Film Festival Era Nowe Horyzonty (originally held in Cieszyn), the ANGELUS Literary Award, the SILESIUS Wrocław Poetic Award and the re-established JAZZ nad Odrą Festival. One of the important promotional initiatives of Dutkiewicz's mayoralty was launched in 2005, when first figures of Wrocław gnomes appeared in the city space. The campaign has been successfully continued and the number of small, funny statutes is still growing (the number reaches 350 different figures, dispersed in the city), while Wrocław gnome has become widely recognized symbol of Wrocław in Poland and abroad. The figure of Well-Wisher gnome was handed over by Mayor Dutkiewicz to the mayors of Wrocław partner cities (Breda, Vilnius, Kaunas, Dresden, Wiesbaden, Reykjavik, Lviv, Oxford, Guadalajara, Hradec Kralove) and sent to Washington and Berlin. One of the main purposes of Mayor Dutkiewicz's presidency - the promotion of Wrocław internationally as business-oriented metropolia, hub of innovation, science and culture - was supported by new partnerships with European cities, launched from 2002 to 2018. Wrocław signed new partner agreements with

In 2016, on International Day of Peace, he invited the highest representatives of different denominations to the meeting in the Church of Peace in Świdnica, where they signed the ‘’Appeal of Peace’’. This inter-faith document was signed on 21 September by the highest representatives of the Roman Catholic, Evangelical Lutheran, Ukrainian Greek Catholic, Orthodox and Pentecostal churches, Jewish and Muslim communities and the 14th Dalai Lama.  It was the third visit of the Dalai Lama in Wrocław, on the invitation of the Mayor Dutkiewicz (in 2008, 2010 and 2016). In 2008 HH Dalailama was awarded the title of the Honorary Citizen of Wrocław by the City Council.


Community and social welfare projects

Wrocław Centre for Social Development and the "Wrocław With No Barriers" programme (both focused on people with disabilities) were important social initiatives developed during the four terms of Dutkiewicz's mayoralty. With the goal of promoting democratic engagement, enabling community-driven initiatives and fostering inter-cultural dialogue the city launched the Civic Budget.


Recent activities

In April 2019, on invitation of the prestigious Robert Bosch Academy, Dutkiewicz began his residency as a fellow at the Richard von Weizsäcker Academy and moved to work from Berlin. His main focus was urban development, local democracy and European integration. His recent engagements and contributions include: * working with the Deutscher Staedtetag and the Democracy Study Centre in Kiev * liaising with the Zukunft Berlin Foundation as a co-organizer of the conference commemorating the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall * collaborating with the EU–Japan Fest foundation in organizing a conference on the European Capital of Culture In November 2019, Dutkiewicz followed in the footsteps of Władysław Bartoszewski and Bronisław Komorowski as the third Polish speaker to deliver a speech in
