Resilient, inclusive, healthy and green rural, coastal and urban communities 
Expected result: successful proposals will contribute to the
fostering of sustainable, balanced, correct and inclusive development of rural
areas, supporting the implementation of the following priorities of the
Commission: the European Green Deal, especially its fair and just transition
component; an economy that works for people as well as for the European Pillar
of Social Rights, the EU Social Economy Action Plan; and a new impetus for
European democracy, especially for the long-term vision of the EU's rural areas
goals (especially the contribution to the resilience of rural areas), and the
strategy for the rights of persons with disabilities 2021-2030.
Scope: Projects funded under this theme will contribute to building more inclusive, socially resilient and prosperous European rural areas by improving the understanding of social inclusion and the challenges of the social economy in rural areas, taking into account the responses of existing policies and solutions for providing adequate services to the population in a vulnerable situation and for the improvement of social economy and entrepreneurship.
