Smarter, stronger and more competitive rural areas: the way forward for EU policies (21 May 2025, 9.30-11.30 am CEST, online)
Building on the European Local Innovation Forum (ELIF) held in November 2024 and following the RURACTIVE Forum in February 2025, the policy dialogue continue. As the EU Institutions are preparing the next Multi Annual Financial Framework – to be tabled in July 2025 – it is time to reflect on the role of community-led innovation in creating vibrant rural areas.
The aims of this webinar are:
- To present the findings of the FUTURAL policy analysis on EU-level policy support to community-led innovation in rural areas.
- To provide country-specific examples of policies and governance frameworks contributing to community-led innovation in FUTURAL countries (Austria, Belgium, Greece, Lithuania, Spain, Romania).
- To discuss policy needs, gaps and recommendations to further contribute to smart community-led innovation in rural areas in the 2028-2034 programming period.
- To present the initial set of FUTURAL policy recommendations.
