GRANULAR is a four-year multi-disciplinary and transnational project, which aims at generating new datasets, tools and methods to better understand rural areas. By doing this, GRANULAR hopes to gain new insights into the unique characteristics, dynamics, and drivers of change in rural areas. Using this knowledge and our Rural Compass, we aim to help those involved in rural development to design place-based policies that are specifically tailored to the needs of each individual area. Ultimately, GRANULAR hopes to support rural actors in their efforts to promote sustainable territorial development.
