Sustainable Rural Development through youth, innovation and entrepreneurship

Closed

The idea of the project was born during the series of discussions lead by the Swedish National Rural Network and the Polish Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. The project is a partnership between organisations in five EU member states, with the theme of youth involvement in local development and support for innovation in rural areas. Based on the experiences from the partnership organisations this flagship project will identify and describe models, methods and best practice for youth involvement and innovation support. This will be done partly at Youth and innovation conferences that will be organized, partly it will be done at home by each partner. The idea is to learn from each other and offer a quick way to disseminate good examples through the partnership. The conferences will focus on methods to involve youth in local development and presentations of Future Visions for rural areas, created by young people and gathered from the local activities. During the conferences experiences of methods for innovation support and ways of training youth in innovative thinking and entrepreneurship will be presented together with good examples of how to involve youth in local development.
