Romania has significant EU funds for digitalization but struggles with low technology adoption and digital skills among its population. The government's initial plans for a centralized digital transformation authority have been undermined by a recent emergency ordinance that keeps the Digitalization Authority under the Ministry of Economy. This decision raises concerns about accountability and the effectiveness of digital projects, as fragmented responsibilities may hinder progress. The analysis emphasizes the need for a strong coordinating body to ensure successful implementation of digital initiatives and highlights the importance of clear mandates and public accountability.
