The project will consider three themes connected to rural development; lack of economic development and innovations, negative or insufficient exposure of regions and downsizing in level of services and amenities.
Priority
4 – Promoting Sustainable and Competitive Communities
Area of Intervention
4.1 Tackling the needs of areas in decline
Using a co-operative approach the project partners will work together on a number of pilot initiatives to consider these issues in a transnational setting. The end result of the project will be a Rural Power Pack, which will be disseminated and communicated at an EU level. The project will be supported by a scientific support group.
