ACCESS Improving accessibility of services of general interest – organisational innovations in rural mountain areas (ACCESS)

Start date: Aug 31, 2008, End date: Aug 30, 2011,

The maintainance of a spatially and socially equal accessibility to services of general interest (SGI) is a core issue to the functionality of mountain areas. However, the ongoing territorial concentration of SGI leads to a vicious circle of further deterioration in the quality of provision which in turn causes a decreasing demand in the existing services. The withdrawal of SGI has many negative c ...
