By rural area constituency this Thematic Network distinguishes:

  • Rural regions close to large cities
  • Regions "in rural decline" which are subject to ongoing out-migration as well as population ageing
  • Particularly marginalised areas (case of numerous mountain and island areas)
  • Other rural areas

Inhabitants in these areas mainly belong to the first sector (agriculture, forestry, fishing,..), or to organisations providing services for those, and for a slowly increasing industry and tourism population. Participants in any Thematic Network or accompanying measure which addresses the ICT issues in this environment must take into consideration the components of its constituency:

  • Local Action Groups, which are formed by end users, civic and voluntary sector, local municipalities and local development agencies, and administration
  • Rural SMEs and their associations, and other relevant User Groups (pe: Large firms with interests in rural economy)
  • Technology intermediaries with a regional focus
  • Telecom operators
  • Equipment developers and integrators
  • Service providers
