...ESPON is pleased to share key findings from the Seminar in Tallinn 2017 as well as insights into how the ESPON community is gearing up for shaping the territorial future of Europe.

This policy brief aims to help European, national, regional and urban authorities to better understand the level of digitalisation of public services, to learn from others through benchmarking and to design actions for the future.

The purpose of this Policy Brief is to identify shrinking rural regions and where they are located in Europe; explore key development challenges and opportunities; examine some policy responses using case study examples from shrinking rural regions; and present some emerging policy recommendations at European, national and sub-national levels.

Persons interacting with public authorities via the internet have been gradually increasing across Europe.
