Regional development of Romania – a premise for better project financing

Abstract

The article approaches important aspects regarding the regional development process in Romania in direct correlation with the European Union views and directives in this field. This paper argues that regionalization implies a new reorganization of Romania in view of a balanced development and to increase the absorption of European Funds, which
\nconsequently engages regional development, the development of local communities and the decentralization of public administration. Furthermore, in this paper we present the 
\nconsistency issue concerning the request for territorial-
\nadministrative development in Romania, as it originates from the strategic documents, namely the "National Plan of 
\nGovernance 2017-2020" and the "Action Plan for the Implementation of the Strategy for Strengthening the Public Administration 2014-2020", and we highlight a number of 
\nshortcomings of this process.
