Rural Lab
About the project
The Rural Lab is a LAG-owned implementation project where local actors in the Leader Grogrund area are mobilized to jointly explore, test, and develop new solutions and collaboration models for rural development.
Through a lab format, a flexible and creative environment is created where ideas can quickly be turned into action, focusing on preparedness, digitalization, climate adaptation, new energy solutions, sustainable housing, and modernization of civil society.
