On 6 May 2021, the Rural Networking Department (Estonian Rural Network) of Agricultural Research Centre will organize a web-based thematic seminar on smart villages `Finnish experience and vision´.

Finland is one of the countries that is most advanced in preparing a support framework for Smart Villages for the near future. Much is already happening! This webinar gives a good overview of the development of smart villages in Finland. In addition, we also hear about an Estonian LEADER smart villages cooperation project.
