Romania (NUTS 2), in the period 2010-2019. To provide the most complex analysis possible, I

capita and the gross value added of the ICT sector reduce the poverty rate, while the unemployment
rates lead to poverty increases. However, at regional level, in general, the poverty rate decreased
in 2019 compared to the 2010 levels. |
