PROJECT DETAILS

Within a municipality, we often face disparities in the socio-economic development between rural and urban settlements as a result of various reasons, and the most common reason is the lack of sufficient funds in the municipal budgets for investments in rural areas. The municipality of Konce is a rural and agricultural municipality and the inhabitants of this municipality mostly work and exist from this economic activity. However, the improvement of the overall living conditions, the quality of life, the opportunities for recreation and socialization among the inhabitants should in no case be neglected. Rural development is a complex process that depends on a multi-sectoral approach in implementing development policy and mobilizing local resources. Utilizing the identified strengths and opportunities as well as the comparative advantages of the region should create synergies on a horizontal and vertical level that will focus on interventions to improve agriculture, but also in improving the socio-economic status of the rural population and the quality of life in their communities. The village of D. Lipovic has a total of 423 inhabitants and is located in the eastern part of the Municipality of Konce, 13 km from the municipal headquarters of Konce. D. Lipovi е is a hilly village located at an altitude of 310 meters, and the area of ​​the village is very large and covers an area of ​​21.4 km2 Rural communities need modern communal infrastructure (water supply, wastewater collection and drainage), fecal sewerage network as well as basic services for connection and facilitation with transport solutions. The need arises in order to help the existing rural areas to be connected and arranged in order to provide a better place of residence for the citizens, to integrate and to cooperate better. Rural areas are places of great wealth and they can become even more attractive if we enable them to discover their potential.
