OECD SMEs, Regions and Cities 66d ago

Drawing on the discussions from the OECD Latin American Rural Development Conference, this workshop will be subdivided into the following three sessions: 1. Understanding and leveraging mutual benefits: new ways to measure rural-urban connections 2. How agrifood, tourism, bioeconomy and circular systems provide prosperity in urban and rural places 3. Leveraging AI, innovation and investment to build rural-urban connected systems Due to technical difficulties, neither the introduction by Shayne MacLachlan (Communication and Public Affairs Manager, OECD/CFE) nor the opening remarks by Dorothée Allain-Dupré (Head of the Regional Development and Multi-level Governance Division, OECD/CFE) were recorded.
