Community engagement, rural development and dynamization, heritage education, environmental education and tourism atraction will be vehiculized by these "green" tractor elements Learning Villages is our inspiration model. Learning Villages are communities that think and plan together the shape and future of their places. International connections can inspire and help to achieve these aims and to foster active European citizenship in their inhabitants. Learning by doing and learning by projects adult education plays a key role in these processes. Creativity interdisciplinar injections in less favoured peripheral rural areas can help to stop negative population trends and attract tourism and new residents.
