Dear Community,
For this month's issue, and further to International Mountain Day on 11 December, we wanted to focus on mountain areas. We will also lead you to Spain and to Finland, as well as to many Interreg regions. The drone strategy will take us in the air, before finally landing back on earth with a list of several calls for proposals.
Please also take a look at the news on the change of our privacy statement, and as always feel free to contact us for questions, comments or contributions!
All that remains is for us to wish you a happy and rural end of the year!
