In a changing world, international concern has been expressed on how best to develop our societies and cities to address a more sustainable common future. We do work towards a new model of growth that has to be: smart, through more effective investments in education, research and innovation; sustainable, with a decisive transition to a low-carbon economy; and inclusive, thanks to strong emphasis on job creation and poverty reduction. Whilst development of urban areas is seen as critical, rural areas represent a means for promoting structural changes where the territory and other productive and human settlement activities act together. Such linkages include a multi-sectorial model of development founded on the diversification of activities and the re-evaluation and reinvention of existing ones. This book focuses on exploring smart answers putting the emphasis on effective economic, social and environmental aspects and synergies that can support sustainable rural development. It was conceived as a support to the field visit to Loures that was organized by the Commission on the Sustainability of Rural Systems (CSRS) in the framework of the IGU Conference: “Smart Answers for a Smiling Future”, that took place in Portugal between the 27th July and the 2nd August 2015. As a first step for a long journey, the field visit in Loures establishes a pathway that aims to analyze and reflect on specific aspects that in our opinion constitutes smart answers for a smiling future.
