What does the RRN do?

Rete Rurale Nazionale supports rural development policies through the exchange of experiences and knowledge between rural areas, and through improved implementation and management of rural development programmes in Italy.

Goals

Rete Rurale Nazionale aims to ensure better visibility of achieved results, and the widest possible participation of rural development stakeholders, from across Italy, and exchanging knowledge from different rural areas.

Target

Rete Rurale Nazionale favours the participation of partnerships, organisations, and administrations that are involved (directly or indirectly) in the field of rural development - which includes managing authorities, paying agencies, GAL (local action groups); large consumer audiences, and stakeholders.

BEST PRACTICE

Best Practices are a collection of georeferenced cases selected by the regional Autorità di Gestione which show the goals of the PSRs through the experiences of the key players.
