This MAP Position Paper builds on the information provided in the SHERPA Discussion Paper on the social dimension. Within SHERPA, the social dimension specifically refers to people-to-people relations and encompasses a wide range of topics including: 1) well-being and social relations in rural areas; 2) the provision of public assets and social networks; 3) reducing the rural-urban fission by promoting cultural activities; and 4) the social inclusion of migrant populations in rural areas. In this context, the MAP Wallonia has focused on well-being in Wallonian rural areas, and in particular its link with housing, past and present infrastructures, mobility and social inclusion. Firstly, the paper provides a general description of the current situation, followed by the identification of the current needs as well as the levers of existing and future actions. Finally, the paper provides recommendations for future rural policies in the areas pertinent to the paper. This work was conducted in collaboration with the members of MAP Wallonia and builds on two participatory workshops organised with its members during the course of the project.
