Ecorys

date:  27/03/2019

A definition of ‘Smart Villages’ was presented recently in the workshop of ‘Smart eco-social villages’ that took place on 21-22 February 2019, in Brussels.  This is the result of the work undertaken by the pilot project on Smart Eco-Social Villages.

This EU-funded project, that ran between 2017-2019, mapped out challenges and opportunities in rural areas, aiming to provide a definition of ‘Smart Villages’, as well as identifying good practice examples and case studies on the topic.

Further information is available in the online presentation and briefing note.
