Project manager Prof. Mirjana Radovanović attended the meeting of representatives of the OSCE countries, as well as others, at which examples of economic resilience, i.e. non-resilience of rural areas around the world, were presented. Factors that contribute to the aforementioned and ways in which unwanted trends can be slowed down or even turned into examples of good practice are pointed out.
The aforementioned experiences were compared with the results of research on the project and will be very useful in creating recommendations, as a result of the project in the Republic of Serbia.
In accordance with the organizer’s decision, video inclusion of the participants was not possible.
