"Madam President, the main concern of women in rural areas is the lack of jobs. The lack of jobs means low incomes for the elderly, which, in turn, increases the risk of poverty. In addition, children’s education and healthcare services in rural areas are the lifeblood of these communities.
The precarious nature of the basic infrastructure in the countryside means that entrepreneurs show less interest in developing farms and production units in these areas. I urge Member States to use the Structural Funds to remedy the lack of basic infrastructure in rural areas and to implement policies for improving access to the public infrastructure for everyone. I call on the Commission and Member States to abide by their commitment to improve the broadband infrastructure in rural areas as a means of boosting their competitiveness.
Rural tourism based on family tourist enterprises creates jobs, makes it possible to combine family obligations with work, and encourages the rural population to remain in the countryside."@en1
