Since the RDP’s effects on innovation in rural areas can be expected to take place, most likely, in the long-term, the guidelines focus in particular on those evaluation related activities, which will be reported in the AIR in 2019 and in the ex post evaluation. The Guidelines are structured in three parts:
Este libro tiene como objetivos impulsar el fortalecimiento de los vínculos entre práctica científica, anclaje territorial y visión de futuro.
