NRNs' Workshop on 'Social Inclusion: Attractive and Inclusive Rural Areas'

This NRNs’ workshop discussed key social inclusion challenges in rural areas and ways of overcoming them by attracting young people, strengthening entrepreneurial capacities, improving the perception about rural areas and better communicating rural attractiveness.

Participants – including representatives of Network Support Units, Managing Authorities, Local Action Groups and other stakeholder organisations – suggested actions to solve a specific social challenge of their choice within an interactive group exercise.

The workshop followed the 9th NRNs’ meeting of 15 November 2017.
