LILLA - Land Life Learning
The last decades many structural changes took place in rural areas and villages smaller than 5000 inhabitants in the
partner countries. The project focuses on two actors in this sector: organisations for rural development and providers of
adult education. Both have in common that they want to support social development, life quality and local
entrepreneurship in their areas and agree that education is a key factor to realise this. Organisations for rural
development realise many activities that have to do with education. Educational providers offer good programmes,
which however in many cases, do not have a clear relation with the situation in the rural sector.
The main project aim is to link these two worlds that work rather separaTely: educational providers and organisations for
rural development (local Leader-groups and others). The project partners, and their regional second circles, will
exchange innovative strategies to make life more attractive in the rural areas/villages, discuss how to organise lifelong
learning as a continuous project in the rural area, and analyse the possibilities of meaningful cooperation between the
two sectors.
Some keywords: local economy projects, multifunctional community centres, rural tourism, etc. The main activities of
the project: international seminars with exchange of good practices, field visits and regional second circle activities.
