Description
FAO launched the "1000 Digital Villages Initiative" programme that promotes the digitisation of services in rural areas. In the Latin America and the Caribbean region, this initiative has been tied to ongoing rural tourism experiences, taking advantage of connectivity, resources and digital solutions to improve the promotion and sale of services, foster rural transformation, increase household incomes and employment opportunities. The digital repository is a space where the videos of the experiences that the initiative works on and of the seminars that are held will be hosted.
