Rural toolkit - a comprehensive guide to EU funding and support opportunities for rural areas

Many EU funds & support initiatives can help to improve the quality of life in rural areas. But how to find the best option? The rural toolkit is the new online guide to EU resources available for rural territories across the European Union.

The rural toolkit provides practical information, examples and direct links to existing schemes. Applications must be submitted via the official webpages of each initiative. For further details on funding opportunities, inspirations and resources visit the rural toolkit website. 

The Rural toolkit is part of the European Commission’s long-term vision for stronger, connected, resilient and prosperous rural areas in the EU. It shows how initiatives and practices supported by EU funding schemes and policies can help rural communities revitalise their territories.
