Rural Ecosystem Mapping
Project Result 1: Rural Ecosystem mapping
The objective of this Project Result is to define a methodology for
ex-ante territorial or sectoral analysis regarding the
entrepreneurship of people at risk of exclusion. It serves to map
the different existing stakeholders and mechanisms that might be
used to implement supporting programmes, but also to identify
potential business niches. Finally, this information is used to
define entrepreneurship training/incubation strategy for people at
risk of exclusion that could be developed in those territories and/or
identified sectors.
Creation of the digital stakeholder map
All participating partners of the project aimed to identify public and private actors in their country, so they can
actively participate in the definition of the supporting territorial or
sectoral strategies for entrepreneurship for people at risk of social
exclusion. The identification of this group of actors is fundamental
to develop any supporting programme for entrepreneurship
(training, innovation, mentoring, follow-up…) . Through this intellectual
output, project partners completed a research, identified, and standardised the
different patterns of a participatory analysis, focused on creating
promising environments for the creation of new businesses by
people in vulnerable situations.
Who are those stakeholders?
