Making the Rural Pact happen in Member States and regions: a repository of practices
This repository of practices illustrates how European countries and regions are putting in place structures, mechanisms and approaches to strengthen rural governance, stakeholder engagement and integrated rural development.
- European Union
It builds on the Rural Pact policy briefing Making the Rural Pact happen in Member States which identifies seven key ingredients for strengthening rural governance and enabling action towards the objectives of the long-term vision for the EU's rural areas.
The repository is structured around these seven ingredients, covering mechanisms for engaging rural communities, dedicated government responsibilities, capacity building and networking, forward-looking rural strategies, rural proofing and data systems, governance coordination, and funding synergies.
Each section presents relevant practices, with concise descriptions and links to additional resources. The repository offers inspiration for policymakers and rural stakeholders looking to strengthen the implementation of the Rural Pact at national and regional levels.
The information is also presented by country on the Rural Pact country pages which provide an overview of national and regional approaches.
