1313 June, 2022●●(2 events)All day: Living Labs and Multi-Actor Platforms in rural areas All day Living Labs / Multi-Actor Platforms are increasingly considered by innovation policies as drivers of transformative change. Indeed, the interaction between stakeholders is supposed to generate innovation adapted to the needs of users and their context and to promote inclusion. A reflection is needed, both on the effectiveness of Living Labs as drivers of transformative change and on the validity of the knowledge created through them, as well as on the methodologies to make them more effective and efficient. This workshop, jointly organised by the DESIRA, MOVING and SHERPA projects, will be an opportunity to share experiences in this field and to reflect on how to consolidate methods and concepts around this approach. Have a look at the agenda. Online 11:00 am: H2020 PoliRural - Webinar on Foresight11:00 am – 12:00 pm Foresight as a discipline has been around for decades, with applications spanning a wide range of industries, from retail to rural development. Most recently, foresight has been used by the European Commission to develop a long-term vision for rural areas up to 2040. While foresight has been gaining in popularity, a common error is to think that foresight and future studies are synonymous. Future studies have their merit and are appropriate in certain contexts, but they are not the same as foresight, which is more action oriented and participatory, rather than purely research based. This webinar will present the foresight framework used in the PoliRural project as a tool for managing change in rural regions. Participants will be introduced to key concepts and methods underpinning the framework, before learning about preliminary results of its implementation in the region of Monaghan (IE) and Gevgelija-Strumica (NMK). The event will feature an interactive session to allow participants to ask questions and/or respond to any of the points mentioned in the presentations. SPEAKERSPatrick Crehan: Local |

Hybrid All day: OECD Local Development Forum: Better strategies for stronger communities All day Beyond the shockwaves of COVID-19 and the humanitarian, social and economic pressures sparked by the large scale aggression in Ukraine, broader shifts such as the green transition, digitalisation and demographic change are fundamentally changing the communities where people live, work, create and consume. These changes bring both opportunities and challenges such as the changing geography of jobs and a need to massively rethink and ramp up our skills systems to keep pace with these changes. While these shifts may seem unprecedented, this is not the first time that communities have undergone transformational changes.
What can be learned from how communities have managed such transformations in the past, and what innovative approaches are communities taking to help all places and people emerge stronger and more resilient, together?
Local All day: The Rural Pact conference All day The Rural Pact conference will bring together EU, national, and regional politicians along with local authorities, social and economic stakeholders in a participatory event that reflects the rural vision’s ambition and bottom-up character. It will engage participants in designing the governance of the Rural Pact and gather commitments for the achievement of the long-term vision for the EU’s rural areas. Local |

2121 June, 2022●(1 event)10:00 am: Rural brain drain: How can the Cohesion Policy help reverse the trend?10:00 am – 12:00 pm Brain drain of young people and ageing population are two critical problems in rural and mountainous areas. As evidenced by a 2022 study done by Euromontana, 66% of mountain youth would like to remain in mountains but the lack of employment opportunities and dynamism as the main reasons for them to consider leaving. As result, the average age of mountain populations is higher than in other territories, with 4 out of the 6 top ageing regions in Europe being mountainous regions. 2022 was declared European Year of Youth by the European Commission, and International Year of the Sustainable Mountain Development by the United Nations. This conjunction of international pledges raises the question of how European policies, and in particular the 2021-2027 Cohesion Policy and the Next Generation EU, address the needs of youth in marginal areas, such as mountains. Are these policies ambitious enough to live up to the challenges faced by mountain areas and offer mountain youth the same opportunities as in other regions of Europe? For more information

2222 June, 2022●(1 event)All day: New insights from family farm research through a focus on the farm householdfarm operation interface All day An event jointly organized by Bern University of Applied Sciences (BFH) and the European Society for Rural social scientists continue to study why, how, and which farm families stay on the land in the face of unrelenting change and the inherent instability of the agricultural sector due to biophysical, social, political, and economic forces. The interconnections and exchange of resources between the farm household and farm operation interface help to absorb shocks to the farm enterprise and work to facilitate farm reproduction. Yet the interface between the household and operation has mostly been treated as a black box within the farm family literature preventing the development of an in-depth understanding of the bi-directional mechanisms at play. Studies that consider the strengths and challenges of farm households within the Western industrialized countries context are sparse and these studies tend to focus on the farm household seldom making explicit and in-depth connections to the consequences on farm operation structures and development trajectories. To update and broaden the family farm scholarship, we invited theoretical, empirical, and discussion papers that shed a light on the farm household-farm operation interface. Papers could be based on new research or revisiting of data previously analyzed but with a new eye to the linkages between the farm household and the farm operation. https://ruralsociology.eu/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/@Switzerland_programme.pdf Online |
