The main aim of KiNESIS project (https://www.kinesis-network.eu/homesite/1/1/home-page.html) is to create a Knowledge Alliance among academia, NGOs, communities, local authorities, businesses to develop a program of multidisciplinary activities in shrinking areas with the aim of promoting and fostering ideas, projects, workforce, productivity and attractiveness.
Keeping in mind the triangular objectives of cooperation and innovation of research, higher education and business of the Knowledge Alliance action, the project aims are:
i) revitalising depopulated areas by stimulating entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial skills;
ii) creating local living laboratories, shared at European level, in which the exchange of knowledge, best practices, experiences can help promote social inclusion and entrepreneurial development;
iii) experimenting new, innovative and multidisciplinary approaches in teaching and learning;
iv) facilitating the exchange, flow and co-creation of knowledge at a local and global level.

The project focuses on rural areas. Some of the problems affecting peripheral territories in rural areas are the emigration of young generations, the abandonment and loneliness of elderly people, loss of jobs, declining economy, the deterioration of buildings and land, the closing of schools and related services, the disappearance of traditions and customs and the contraction of local governments.

KiNESIS promotes several activities by involving local schools and commuties to improve their digital skills in cooperation with Wikimedia, NGOs and companies.
