Summary: The overall objective of Innovative Village is to enhance the service production in rural areas. The project pilots and evaluates methods for stimulating locally produced services in rural areas and finds new solutions to organise services in target villages.

While developing the new service in the village the project will also strengthen the innovation skills, active citizenship and networks both nationally and internationally.
