EU territory: • 50% rural • 38%
intermediate
Rural & intermediate:
• 55% EU jobs • 46% GVA
Key facts and figures: rural growth potential
• Rural GDP lags at around 70% of EU average
• But average GDP growth rate 2000-2009 higher in OECD rural regions (2013)
• Aggregate growth or rural regions = 75% of total growth
EC, 2014
OECD, 2014
Key facts and figures: jobs

• Description now in WP introduction p. 9-10
• Multi-actor projects are about interactive innovation
• Beyond dissemination requirement and stakeholders' board
• Genuine and sufficient involvement of various actors all along the project, from planning to demonstration
• Demonstrate how project will respond to end-users needs
• Substantial practical knowledge easily accessible and understandable
• Contribution to EIP-AGRI (for EIP-AGRI related areas)
• Practice abstracts respecting the common EIP format
• Strong recommendation to connect with operational groups
