Services
The Smart Village Network Services has been set up to support the work of the members of the Smart Village Network. The SVNS offers a range of services to its members, including organisation of events and exchanges, policy advocacy and support for rural community strategy development and implementation of actions.
The Smart Village Network Services organises regular events for its members and beyond that allow exchange and networking. Events range from face-to-face visits to members getting to better know local communities and smart practices, to online debates on policy-issues. Check out and join our next event!
The Smart Village Network Services aims to make the voices of rural communities heard in political and policy debates, ensuring that rural communities receive more useful support in the future. Among others, the SVNS is member and Vice-Chair of the Rural Pact Coordination Group.
