Unlocking Rural Innovation
In the midst of a global slowdown in productivity, unlocking the innovative potential of rural places is more important than ever. As part of a series on supporting to help rural areas thrive, this thematic report provides the latest analysis and research on rural innovation, and proposes ways to overcome the growing gaps between rural and urban places that are contributing to the geographies of discontent. It first explores the multi-facetted innovative practices that are already occurring in rural places, and proposes alternative indicators beyond the traditional science and technology measures to capture them. Then, it identifies policy drivers and bottlenecks to help rural entrepreneurs, firms and people fully mobilise their growth potential. Results and recommendations are drawn from research and fact-finding missions from select OECD member countries.
évaluations et recommandations
Les pays de l'OCDE sont aujourd'hui confrontés à un effondrement mondial de l'innovation, avec moins d'innovations qui changent radicalement le fonctionnement de notre société et un ralentissement concomitant de la productivité. Ce ralentissement touche les pays du monde entier et a un impact sur les salaires, le bien-être et les opportunités économiques ( OCDE, 2019[1] ).
