OECD Rural Policy Reviews: Finland

17-Apr-2008

Finland is one of the most rural countries within the OECD and it is also one of the early adopters of a multi-sectoral approach to rural policy.

A first rural policy review was conducted for Finland in 1995, and this edition offers a unique look at how Finnish rural policy has evolved since the initial recommendations made in 1995.
