Local people and local products without borders

Project description:  

Adopting the Hungarian experience can strengthen the Serbian processes in connection with social co-operatives, which will contribute to the rural development of a small municipality like Kula.
Further development of social co-operatives and their networking has a great impact on employment rates and labour market on both sides of the border, especially in Serbia. Continuing the adaptation of a well-operated model and the transfer of new processes will strengthen the growth. Fostering local producers and local products with the development of their marketing and product design will contribute to the economic development of the region.
Capacities and services will be harmonised and developed in the field of production and marketing of social enterprise profiles and local products, and long-term cooperation will be established.
