Webinar on Refugee & Migrant Entrepreneurship in Rural Areas

The webinar brings together practical insights from integration projects and academic research, creating a space for discussion, learning, and collaboration.

Across Europe, rural regions face a dual challenge: aging populations and labor shortages. At the same time, refugees and migrants bring valuable skills and entrepreneurial potential, but often lack the local networks needed to succeed in rural markets.

Upcoming webinar explors the challenges and opportunities for everyday entrepreneurship among refugees and migrants in rural areas.
