1 Typology of Rural Regions in Europe A regional typology as instrument for integrative rural development RUFUS Rural Future Networks Workshop Hannover August 2010 `Diversities of rural areas in Europe and beyond

2 Table of Content A. Introduction B. RUFUS Typology > methodology > indicator selection > characterisation of European regions > application of typology results C. Future research questions

3 B. Introduction Main objective Diversity Similarities of European rural regions *current state and rural development *relative background methodology Statistical analysis Typology of rural regions in Europe Target group policy makers for rural development on the national/european level Research unit 9 partner countries Indicator set *from multi-sectoral point of view Research level Regional level -NUTS3 -

4 B. European regions population density percentage of land covert by urban use urban intermediate urban intermediate rural rural factor + cluster analysis interpretation additional indicators URBAN RURAL TYPE1 RURAL TYPE2 RURAL TYPE3 RURAL TYPE4 RURAL TYPE5 typology of rural regions

5 B. RUFUS Typology General characterisationof European regions > used indicators 1. Population density(eurostat) 2. Percentage of CORINE urban land(clc) 3. Percentage of Urban Audit ` Core City Regions` (Eurostat) 4. Percentage of urban audit ` Large Urban Zones`(Eurostat)

6 B. Indicator selection for characterisation of rural areas broader cluster description by additional indicators rural typology indicators describing current state - Unemployment rate - GDP in PPS per Inhabitant - Employees in Agriculture (as percentage of total employees) - GVA from Manufacturing (as percentage of total GVA in current prices) - GVA per Employee in the Service Sector typology indicators for cluster analysis indicators describing potentials - population change ( ) - NATURA2000 area as percentage of total area additional indicators for cluster description - LEADER+ (percentage of area in LEADER LAG s) - Education (school graduates with qualification for university entrance) - Hotel bedspaces(per 1000 residents) - Campsite bedspaces(per 1000 residents)

7 Rural Component 1 * Population change *Unemployment rate *GDP Socio-economic success Rural Component 2 *Employment in Agric. *GVA in Manufacturing *Service ratio Importance of economic sectors Rural Component 3 *% of NATURA2000 area *Hotel bedspaces *Campsite bedspaces Tourism and nature capital

8 A. RUFUS Typology RuralType 1 RuralType 2 RuralType 3 RuralType 4 RuralType 5

9 A. Explanation of rural types 1. Urban Urban Agriculture oriented rural regions without tourism utilisation of landscape Tourism oriented rural regions with slight orientation to agriculture and service Lagging behind rural regions regarding socio-economic success, with high nature capital and no importance of tourism Rural regions with less importance of tourism and less economic success, accompanied by lowest share of NATURA 2000 area 5. Rural regions with high importance of manufacturing and medium importance of tourism sector with parallel low share of NATURA2000 areas Missing data

10 B. Application of typology results Wesermarsch - Germany FOTOs: MaikeLücke2009, Johanna ScholzZ2010, 12x case studies (interviews and focus groups)

11 B. Application of typology results RUFUS Typology Case study region no 2 Wesermarsch/ Germany Comparison of RUFUS typology and individual case study regions > Analysis of consistency of regional information > Feedback on Maintypeinformation for every case study area > Assessment of representativenessof the single region for Maintype

12 B. Application of results RUFUS Typology Main types Case study region no 2 Wesermarsch/ Germany RUFUS Typology Subtypes TYPE

13 A. Subtypes RUFUS Typology of rural regions in Europe Maintype and Subtypes European regions bottom up top down TYPE 1 TYPE 2 TYPE 3 TYPE 4 TYPE / European regions

15 B. Application of typology results Typology Case studies Jura -France- Current state Current state driving factor Jura Vosges -France- Current state? Current state driving factor Vosges 5 Kalmar Iän 5.1 -Sweden- Current state Current state driving factor Kalmar Iän Policy recommendation

16 C. Research gaps and necessary future research topics 1. Use of ecological indicators 2. Linkage to models 3. Adaptation of rural typology approaches to specific target groups/ questions 4. Usability of characterisations in the framework of European policy 5. Processing of typology results for target group
