EU rural regions get just 12% of R&D investment despite 21% of the population. This week on The Rural Innovator, Art and Jan cover the urban-rural innovation divide, Kenya's generative AI push (93% mobile money penetration), Philippine value-chain reform, Stats Canada's rural classifications, and Brazil's regenerative farming vs. deforestation tension.
A public library of research, news, organizations, and events on rural innovation. We curate peer-reviewed work, media, and community projects to show what's actually happening in rural innovation worldwide — not just the metro narrative.
