Regional Foresight: A Synthesis of Lessons and Recommendations from 12 PoliRural Pilots
A reflection on the foresight process and its implementation in 12 rural areas across the EU and beyond, with the aim of making these regions more attractive for living, working, and investing. Foresight was implemented in stages with local and regional stakeholders representing different sectors of the rural economy. Besides farmers, there were also people engaged in community work, entrepreneurial activity, hospitality, cultural heritage, professional services, education, and training, and more. Their involvement ensured that foresight results reflect the needs of those who have a direct stake in the development of the region.
