The main purpose of the article is to provide Polish readers with key information on one of the newer theory of the public policy process – Narrative Policy Framework (NPF). The NPF assumes that public policy narratives play a fundamental role in the public policy process. These are strategically structured stories about the causes and solutions to public policy problems. Actors use narratives to achieve their objectives, e.g. implementing policies closest to their preferences. In the example of the Government’s Good Start Programme, the article presents the practical applications of the NPF at micro, meso and macro levels.
