BAB 063/22: Communicating roots: co-learning to improve rural resilience and governance - CoROOTS (ERASMUS+ Projekt)

Co-learning methods to improve resilience management in rural areas


The project was applied for on the initiative of the Prout Research Institute in Portugal in order to enable a scientific exchange of co-learning approaches developed in research projects in recent years, to disseminate them further in regional development, to implement them in practice and also to develop them further. The BAB contributes its results from the H2020 projects SIMRA, ROBUST and Liverur on the topics of social innovation and living lab approaches in business models in rural development. The cooperation partners will contribute their experience of rural proofing and methods for participation processes in local development.

The aim of the project was to strengthen the capacities of citizens and local organizations to participate in the development of strategies for sustainable and ecologically resilient development. Specifically, local decision-makers were to be introduced to the topics of social innovation in the context of rural development using participatory approaches. In the same way, the four participating organizations should strengthen their capacities through mutual scientific exchange on these topics.  


The Erasmus+ project was approved to start in 10/2022. The BAB received funding for 54 working days and for the planned trips to two workshops in Portugal and Spain. CoRoots creates spaces for multidisciplinary joint learning by organizing three workshops in ES, PT and AT, where good practices in social innovation and citizen participation in rural areas were presented, discussed and further developed. Secondly, to provide space for more concrete discussions and cooperation between the project collaborations.

The project was completed at the end of 2023. As a result of the project, the four partner organizations have produced the CoRoots Didactic Guide to share the lessons and reflections drawn from this experience. It summarizes methods, tools, approaches and some of the practical examples that were mutually applied during the project.

Project start: 10/2022
