What is Rural Planning and Development?Rural planning and development is a relatively new field that can be approached from several directions: either from an interdisciplinary rural development or rural studies perspective or a specialized area of study such as planning, environmental science, nursing or aboriginal issues. In general, however, rural development is a field that strives to improve the social, political and economic welfare of the people and the environment that sustains them. |
