Visit our brand new website for the SIMRA project!

The new Horizon 2020 project SIMRA (Social Innovation in Marginalised Rural Areas) has officially started on the 1^st April 2016 for four years. The project aims to categorise and understand social innovation in different settings (thanks to case studies), to develop an integrated set of methods for the evaluation of social innovation and its impact on rural areas, to analyse the success factors for social innovation and disseminate new knowledge to policy-makers.

Coordinated by the James Hutton Institute in Scotland, several Euromontana members are directly involved: the University of Highlands and Islands (Scotland), SAB (Switzerland), ENRI (Norway), EURAC (Italy).

Our website and social media have just been launched; don’t hesitate to visit them, to subscribe to SIMRA newsletter, to follow us on the social networks and to give us your feedback, comments. All the relevant links are below:
