-    <p>Rural attractiveness is a rather complex concept - which renders its measurement anything but trivial. For
-        instance, in PoliRural, we observed that concepts of rural attractiveness differ significantly from region to
-        region, and are conditioned by developmental priorities such as the desire to attract investors, entrepreneurs,
-        or
-        tourists. Thus, what is understood as rural attractiveness may depend on where, when, and by whom attractiveness
-        is

-    <p>With the Rural Attractiveness Explorer, we want to enable users to explore the effects of different policy
-        choices
-        on the rural attractiveness of the PoliRural pilot regions. Thus, we transform the outputs of the Policy
-        Explorer
-        into a value of the IRA and visualise the results of that in different ways.</p>
-    <p>Notably, the Policy Explorer was initially not designed to have its outputs fit with the concept and Index of
-        Rural
-        Attractiveness. Thus, we use a version of the IRA here that represents a lowest common denominator between the
-        outputs of the Policy Explorer and the requirements of the Index of Rural Attractiveness. For this reason, the
-        adapted IRA we are currently using in the Rural Attractiveness Explorer consists of only 4 instead of 6
-        sub-indices.
-        In future versions, the aim is to identify and include more areas of overlap between the outputs of the Policy
-        Options Explorer and the IRA. For instance, future versions of this IRA will also consider total employment
-        among
-        the economic sub-sub indices, which is not included in the current version of the IRA.</p>

-        </h2>
-        <p>Comparing the rural attractiveness of different regions in Europe can provide various insights:
-                Evidently, it
-                helps to get an impression on where a region stands compared to the rest of Europe.
-                Additionally, by
-                looking at regions that fare especially well in terms of rural attractiveness, it is possible to
-                find
-                out about best practices that may help other regions to improve their rural attractiveness, too.
-                Also,
-                finding regions that are similar in their rural attractiveness characteristics can help to
-                establish
-                cooperation between these similar regions so they can learn from each other and possibly work
-                together
-                on strategies to advance in terms of rural attractiveness.
-        </p>
-        <p>In PoliRural, we have developed several tools that support the comparison of different European
-                regions
-                regarding their rural attractiveness:
-        </p>
-        <p>Our Rural Attractiveness Map application shows the current values of the Index of Rural
-                Attractiveness (IRA)
-                [link to page 5] for all regions in Europe. The Map application allows you to change the
-                settings of the
-                IRA (Which aspects are to be included in the Index? What is the relative importance of the 6
-                sub-indices
-                to you?). Thus, the map can be adapted to your own preferences and needs. Additionally, the Map
-                application can also show groups of similar regions (so-called clusters).
-        </p>
-        <p>The visualizations below allow a comparison of a different kind: They show the IRA only for the PoliRural
-                pilot regions. In compensation, they do not only show current and past values of the Index but also
-                provide a projection into the future. That means they show how rural attractiveness could develop if
-                business-as-usual continues and no new policy measures are implemented.
-        </p>
-        <p>The so-called “dots visualization” shows on one sight the development of the IRA between 2015 and 2040.
-                Thereby, each dot stands for a time period of 3 months (or 0.25 years). The values of the IRA are
-                indicated by the colour of the dots: green hues mean a high IRA value, red hues indicate low IRA values.
-        </p>
-        <p>Please remember that the IRA values are not absolute but only show how the different assessed regions perform
-                relative to each other. Additionally, the way the IRA is made up here is rather imperfect as we have
-                included only a few sub-sub-indices and not all of the 6 IRA sub-indicators are represented here. This
-                is owed to the experimental stage of the Rural Attractiveness Explorer. Therefore, if a region displays
-                low IRA values here, this means that it is less attractive only compared to the other PoliRural pilot
-                regions and only regarding the aspects that have been considered here (consult the graphic here [link to
-                page 5] to see which aspects these are). If compared to other regions and considering different aspects

-        human-made environment, and economic (read more about this here [link to page 5]). Having a look at these
-        sub-indices helps to get a more differentiated picture of the rural attractiveness in the different regions: In
-        which fields does a region perform well and in which fields does it lag behind? Drilling down deeper into the
-        IRA also helps to better understand where changes in the overall IRA come from, in which fields changes occur
-        that increase or decrease the overall value of the IRA.
-    </p>
-    <p>Thus, the visualizations below show the development of the 4 IRA sub-indices for the PoliRural pilot regions from
-        2015 to 2040 under a business-as-usual scenario, which means everything continues as is. See here [link to page

-    <h2 class="my-5">An Overview of Regional Foresight</h2>
-    <p>Foresight has a long history as a strategic management tool. It was employed initially in the development of
-        national
-        research agendas in countries like Japan. It was adopted by the European Commission with the establishment of a
-        Cellule Prospective and the FAST program for Forecasting and Assessment in Science and Technology, under
-        President
-        Jacques Delors. Over the years, the practice of Foresight has evolved beyond national and EU inputs to science
-        and
-        technology policy. It is now applied to a much broader range of issues related to economic and social
-        development,
-        at sectoral, regional, and sub-regional level.&nbsp;</p>
-    <p>Despite its emphasis on stakeholder engagement, the use of the term &lsquo;foresight&rsquo; is often confused
-        with
-        future studies. Foresight practitioners often make the mistake of focusing exclusively on engagement with
-        stakeholders at grass roots level. This is unfortunate as it ignores the need for engagement with
-        &lsquo;actors&rsquo;, those who get things done. That means the people in politics or public administration who
-        hold
-        the purse strings, have the power to allocate budgets or mobilize finance, enact legislation, or design and
-        implement programs. Without effective engagement with such actors, reports stay on the shelf, the plans they
-        contain, however well drafted, never get carried out and the &rsquo;visions&rsquo; of communities never become
-        anything more than a dream.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
-    <p>Aware of these issues, the POLIRURAL project provided a framework for the execution of its 12 regional Foresight
-        initiatives, that include the following key elements.</p>
-    <ul>
-        <li>Bottom-up activities where the leadership team works with policy beneficiaries</li>
-        <li>Top-down activities where the leadership team works with those who make policy happen</li>
-        <li>Production of timely and adequate content to support the work at every stage of the process</li>
-    </ul>
-    <p>&nbsp;The overall process should produce a minimal set of documents including</p>
-    <ul>
-        <li>A vision, which also describes the challenges to be addressed to achieve that vision</li>
-        <li>An action plan, with policy measures to address the challenges and their intervention logic</li>
-        <li>A roadmap which explains measure sequencing, funding, and assignment of responsibility!&nbsp;</li>

-    <h2 class="my-5"> System Dynamic Modelling applied to Regional Foresight</h2>
-    <p> System Dynamic Modelling has a long history. It was pioneered in the 1960s by Jay Forrester, an MIT computer
-        scientist and systems engineer. In 1961 he published a foundational work on System Dynamics in a book entitled
-        “Industrial Dynamics.” This was followed by “Urban Dynamics” in 1969 and “World Dynamics” in 1972.</p>
-    <p> His work demonstrated that our usual “models” for how the world works, fail to capture important aspects of
-        world dynamics, such as complex non-linear behaviours, which if left unchecked, could lead to the collapse of
-        entire earth systems and an end to ever increasing growth and prosperity. </p>
-    <p> The Club of Rome commissioned the system dynamics team at MIT to carry out a “Project on the Predicament of
-        Mankind.” This team included experts from the US, India, Germany, Norway, Turkey, and Iran, with expertise in
-        domains such as population, pollution, agriculture, and natural resources. A summary of its findings was
-        published in 1972 by the Club of Rome with the title “Limits to Growth.”</p>
-    <p>
-        This remains a very important work on the sustainability of human activity at planetary level. It has inspired a
-        great many actors who now work on sustainability and the challenge of living on an increasingly crowded planet
-        with limited natural resources. The
-        Club of Rome exists to this day and currently advises the cabinet of Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the
-        European Commission, on long-term strategy related to sustainability and the achievement of high-level goals
-        related to the climate, energy, and biodiversity.</p>
-    <p> The great advantage of SDM modelling, is its ability to capture real world complexity, and illustrate the
-        interactions between seemingly unrelated phenomena, in terms of feedback and in tells of how dynamics plays out
-        over time; how inevitable consequences of our choices today play out sometimes quickly, and sometimes much more
-        slowly over time. </p>
-    <p>
-        One of the goals of the POLIRURAL project has been to experiment with the use of SDM as a support for vision
-        building and policy co-design at local government level, as part of a regional or sub-regional Foresight
-        initiative. This presents many challenges for those who develop and implement SDM models which are rich enough
-        to address the issues that local policy designers might need to address, yet simple enough for use by
-        non-experts, the wide variety of stakeholders taking part in a typical local Foresight initiative.</p>
-    <p> POLIRURAL made significant progress on all of these issues. It first had to identify precise tasks of a
-        Foresight exercise, where SDM might be used. It had to develop a core model of rural regions and adapt this core
-        model to the specificities of each region of the project. It had to implement each of these regional models
-        using local data sets and make it available for use via an online tool, called the Policy Options Explorer.</p>
-    <p> The general approach is based on what we call “the three-layer model” or 3LM, where the user is presented with
-    </p>
-    <ul>
-        <li> the first layer consisting of a small set of input parameters, where the user can simulate different policy
-            options by choosing a different set of input parameters.</li>
-        <li> A middle layer which contains all of the complex dynamics of the local economy, its society, and its
-            environment, and</li>
-        <li> A third layer, which contains a small number of KPIs, reflecting the performance of the region. </li>
-    </ul>
-    <p> This tool allows a group of stakeholders individually, or working together, to compare the impact of different
-        policy choices such as investments in new experiences or infrastructure projects intended to facilitate access
-        for tourism, on performance indicators such as the number of visitors, nights stayed and jobs created, and see
-        how these play out over time. </p>
-    <p> By way of illustration, the 3LM for exploring tourism related policy options might look like this.</p>

+    with limited natural resources. The
+    Club of Rome exists to this day and currently advises the cabinet of Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the
+    European Commission, on long-term strategy related to sustainability and the achievement of high-level goals
+    related to the climate, energy, and biodiversity.</p>
+  <p> The great advantage of SDM modelling, is its ability to capture real world complexity, and illustrate the
+    interactions between seemingly unrelated phenomena, in terms of feedback and in tells of how dynamics plays out
+    over time; how inevitable consequences of our choices today play out sometimes quickly, and sometimes much more
+    slowly over time. </p>
+  <p>
+    One of the goals of the POLIRURAL project has been to experiment with the use of SDM as a support for vision
+    building and policy co-design at local government level, as part of a regional or sub-regional Foresight
+    initiative. This presents many challenges for those who develop and implement SDM models which are rich enough
+    to address the issues that local policy designers might need to address, yet simple enough for use by
+    non-experts, the wide variety of stakeholders taking part in a typical local Foresight initiative.</p>
+  <p> POLIRURAL made significant progress on all of these issues. It first had to identify precise tasks of a
+    Foresight exercise, where SDM might be used. It had to develop a core model of rural regions and adapt this core
+    model to the specificities of each region of the project. It had to implement each of these regional models
+    using local data sets and make it available for use via an online tool, called the Policy Options Explorer.</p>
+  <p> The general approach is based on what we call “the three-layer model” or 3LM, where the user is presented with
+  </p>
+  <ul>
+    <li> the first layer consisting of a small set of input parameters, where the user can simulate different policy
+      options by choosing a different set of input parameters.</li>
+    <li> A middle layer which contains all of the complex dynamics of the local economy, its society, and its
+      environment, and</li>
+    <li> A third layer, which contains a small number of KPIs, reflecting the performance of the region. </li>
+  </ul>
+  <p> This tool allows a group of stakeholders individually, or working together, to compare the impact of different
+    policy choices such as investments in new experiences or infrastructure projects intended to facilitate access
+    for tourism, on performance indicators such as the number of visitors, nights stayed and jobs created, and see
+    how these play out over time. </p>
+  <p> By way of illustration, the 3LM for exploring tourism related policy options might look like this.</p>

-        for a groupwork session, can already provide support to useful discussions on the subject. This possibility
-        is described in some detail in project deliverable D5.5 listed below. The project has developed two interactive
-        systems allowing groups of stakeholders to dig deeper into the exploration of policy options.
-    <p> One of these is called the POE or Policy Options Explorer. Its interface looks something like this.</p>
