About Ruralbiz
The East Midlands NETWORK FOR RURAL ECONOMIES AND STRATEGIES (NERES) has been developed to deliver enhanced outcomes for rural policy makers and practitioners.
Our core purpose is to add value to the work of rural organisations, thinkers and doers, with a view to improving the quality of life for those living in rural communities in the East Midlands.
The network has a number of action orientated features including:
Rural Line - a 48 hour "first stop shop" response services for enquiries about rural issues
Rural Pracitioner Directory - a database of rural experts and practitioners which operates as an information exchange connecting network members up around rural issues to build regional capacity and knowledge sharing.
Case Studies & Best Practice - a regularly updated series of key documents, studies and on line information with national reach and a regional twist.
News & e-Bulletins - which keep members up to date with key issues arising around the rural agenda.
Action Learning Opportunities - Opportunities for members to participate in study tours which demonstrate best practice in its actual settings.
Information & Resources - Toolkits and other data which provide support for members tackling key challenges in their area.
Action Learning Opportunities - Opportunities for members to participate in study tours which demonstrate best practice in its actual settings.
