Detailed analysis of the impact of OMIs on rural development in four case-study regions (AT, FR, IT, UK) showed that not only economic factors (e.g. employment effects and capital flow in the region), but also or even often more “soft” factors are relevant. However, policy-makers, especially at regional level, need to become more aware of these valuable benefits of OMIs for sustainable rural development and take this sufficiently into account when enhancing support measures. date: 2005 date_type: published publication: Ende der Nische, Beiträge zur 8.
