- Purpose: The purpose of the analysis is to demonstrate the potential impact of the shortcomings of public statistics collections in the field of application of demographic data to regional and local development planning. Design/methodology/approach: Taking into account the importance of human capital for the development of modern economies, acquiring information that reflects the demographic reality seems to constitute one of the crucial aspects determining the quality of planning the development of territorial units. The use of indicators relating to the outdated number or structure of the population in the process of diagnosing the baseline situation may lead to incorrect determination of the competitive position of territorial units and to defining development objectives that are an inadequate match to real challenges and needs of the respective territorial unit. This results in the requirement to correct the data on the number of people available in official statistics with data on unregistered emigration or the use of alternative data sets, such as the social insurance records. Findings: The use of this type of data within the framework of the conducted analysis rendered it possible to identify that the difference between the number of people, as determined on the basis of official registers, and the corrected population status, reaches 2.7-2.9 million people nationwide. Taking this fact into account causes effects in the form of an increase in the value of GDP per capita, both at the nationwide, and at regional scale. Originality/value: Therefore, it can quite clearly change the assessment of their economic potential, putting them in a more advantageous competitive position compared to other EU regions or member states. Consequently, it creates a different starting point for both defining regional or local development objectives and planning public intervention in line with the theory of change.
