Abstract

The integration of digital tools in local public administration has the potential to significantly enhance the efficiency and transparency of European funds utilization. This article examines the impact of digitalization on the effective allocation, management, and reporting of these funds, particularly within local government structures. Key challenges and opportunities related to digital adoption are discussed, including the role of technology in streamlining processes, reducing administrative burdens, and improving fund oversight. Findings suggest that digital transformation can address many barriers to efficient fund usage, but implementation requires robust infrastructure, skilled personnel, and policy alignment. The study proposes strategies for public administrations to optimize digital resources, facilitating sustainable development and improved governance at the local level.
