  • PhD project

    The PhD research project focused on “action-research” to exploit sustainable spatial development models through European rural development policies. This is a more structured and advanced form of participatory research conducted through the involvement of the survey community in the process of defining, collecting and analysing qualitative data and information.

    The field of investigation is mainly circular economy projects implemented through the LEADER approach. The approach promoted by LAGs through their Local Development Strategies (LDT) should in fact aim at creating “circular territories”, able to incorporate the principles of the circular economy and to promote a productive, urban and social regenerative system, based on development schemes focused on the optimization of quality and quantity of resources.

    The objective of the thesis is to identify conditions that can stimulate LAGs and local development actors in strategic planning of circular economy interventions, in view of the interest explicitly shown for the first time in the LEADER approach section of the CAP Strategic Plan (PSP).
