Abstract in English:
Based on an analysis made with the collection of primary and secondary data, the report includes 12,009 CWS located in 23 European countries. We examine the difference among urban, intermediate and rural areas on the NUTS3 level, as well as on the national level. As the report shows the development of CWS is not solely an urban phenomenon like it used to be, but it is rather shifting towards more peripheral and rural contexts as a potential tool for regional development. CORAL-ITN is a Marie Sklodowska Curie Innovative Training Network (2021-2024). Its aim is to unpack the latent dynamics and impacts of CWS in rural and peripheral areas and integrate them as development tools in local and regional policies, to open up new potentials for socio-economic development.
