- Multiple knowledges: which knowledge counts in future rural development?

- Multiple ruralities: vanishing dichotomies of rural and urban and new contrasts and social inequalities, gender relations, uneven development.

- Urbanisation and cities without borders: mobility and the emergence of new “rurban”/rural-urban spaces in European countries.

- Urban and peri-urban agriculture and other forms of new agriculture: food and non-food production - future forms of agricultural production.

- Rural governance and development: the future roles of traditional actors, new groups, actors, institutions, projects and social subjects.

Empirical case studies illustrating such new forms of rurality are welcome, but they should include methodological or theoretical reflections about the guiding question of this working group: What are the new forms of multidimensional rurality emerging that show the future of European rural spaces?
