Polirural
Project Overview
AgFutura Technology is part of Horizon 2020 project called Future Oriented Collaborative Policy Development for Rural Areas and People – Polirural. This project will start on 01.06.2019 and it will last for 3 years with the main reason of encouraging decision makers at different levels of government that are better equipped to tackle existing and emerging rural challenges, rural populations to be more empowered and rural areas more resilient.
PoliRural is a research and innovation project, designed to advance rural policy development in the age of disruptive data and technologies in order to deliver a trusted, scalable and transferable solution for policy co-creation. This project will bring together decision makers, experts and rural inhabitants using advanced policy simulation tools to better understand and tackle regional challenges, ultimately making rural areas and professions more attractive and livable for established populations and recent or potential newcomers. There project will try to tackle these 4 objectives:
- Design a multi-governance policy innovation hub and European ecosystem which strengthens the evidence base for rural policy;
- Measure prevailing attitudes toward rural policies among regional stakeholders by combining survey research with innovative text mining techniques;
- Explore the future trajectory of rural development in every participating region using a hybrid foresight approach;
- Advance the understanding of rural reality as perceived by existing rural populations and recent or potential newcomers.
