Las voces del interior rural valenciano: recursos naturales y resistencias al desarrollo

This paper shows the results of two territorial diagnoses for employment and local development carried out in two rural regions of the province of Valencia. These diagnostics showed that these territories have abundant natural resources, but that lack of competent actors to dynamize them properly; either because they lack the means to do so (access to sources of financing, transport or basic infrastructure), or because they are not trained for it (aging population with lack of train-ing), or because they do not have enough initiative (installed in a comfort zone).
