Auteur(s) de la proposition : Marcelino Herrero

Contexte :

Despite rural development policies in past decades, the loss or stagnation of population remains one of the main problems of many rural areas in Europe. The absence of balanced social groups makes difficult to develop a territory and limits its future. It is essential to promote the attractiveness of rural areas to young people in order to keep a living countryside.
