Map of the month July 2024: World Population Day
On the occasion of World Population Day, which takes place on 11 July, we take a statistical look at the population development of the Centrope region in the last two decades. Remarkable population loss can be seen in the Southern Hungarian part of Centrope as well as in the Northern and South-Western districts of Lower Austria. An overall population gain can be noticed in the Vienna-Bratislava region and in/around Brno, České Budějovice and Győr. The map is available through our geoportal map.centropemap.org.
Chart of the month June
On the occasion of International Children's Day we take a look at children at risk of poverty or social exclusion. This indicator is defined as the sum of children (0-17) who are at-risk-of-poverty or severely materially deprived or living in (quasi-)jobless households (i.e. households with very low work intensity (below 20 %) as a share of the total population in the same age group. While the numbers are constant or slowloy decreasing in the Czech Republic, Austria, and Slovakia, we can see a significant decline in Hungary.
