Smart communities in the Slovakian-Hungarian border region
The purpose of the Slovakian-Hungarian INTERREG-project entitled „Smart Communities – Virtual Education and Research and Development and Innovation Network in the Slovakian-Hungarian Border Region” is to raise the level of digital knowledge of members of the local community in the lagging border region, thereby facilitating their access to higher value-added employment opportunities. The prioritised sectors of the project cover training and R+D+I with a focus on sustainability and ICT. These processes are facilitated by the creation of a network of stakeholders of civil society, educational and research institutions, and the organisation of joint professional training programmes and a mentor system in collaboration with the target groups.
