to the presentation of the research by IME
Regional Profiles: Development Indicators 2022
When: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM / November 16, 2022 (Wednesday) Where: Live at the BTA Press Club | online on the IME and Regional Profiles Facebook pages
For over ten years, the Institute for Market Economics has been presenting the most comprehensive and in-depth study of the social and economic conditions in the regions of Bulgaria.
IME's Regional Profiles cover 68 indicators that depict the real picture in the country's 28 regions and contribute to a deeper conversation about regional development and the challenges facing local authorities.
This year, the focus of the presentation is on the actual demographic conditions at the local level, based on the latest population census.
During the presentation, we will also address the following questions:
How did the pandemic impact the regional landscape of economic development, and what is the role of local authorities in transforming the economy? Did the disparity between regions increase, and what are the driving economic forces in different areas and settlements? What are the trends in employment, unemployment, and incomes, and why have some regions lost a quarter of their population in a decade? Did the pandemic affect the outcomes of the educational system, and how did the healthcare system respond to the extraordinary circumstances? Where is crime the highest, and has the cultural life at the local level recovered? What is the potential, and what are the prospects for the regions?
All analyses, data, and other materials related to the research will be published on the dedicated website: www.regionalprofiles.bg
You can follow the event online on the BTA page.
We look forward to your presence!
