Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of rural development in Romania within the broader European context, focusing on the impact of digitization. Drawing from scientific databases and official sources, the study collected and interpreted data from both European and national statistical systems. The research results showed a significant evolution of digitization in the rural environment, but also the continued existence of significant gaps compared to urban areas. The significant increase in internet access rates in Romanian villages, the use of modern digital technologies in local public administration, or a high level of interest in accessing Smart Village funds are aspects highlighted in the article. The conclusions of the study can be useful to public authorities for the development of strategies aimed at rural development. The research conducted is preliminary in nature, being carried out within doctoral studies.
