A territorial approach of sustainable local development : rendering tools

الملخص EN

This contribution aims to shed light on what the regional perspective provides for sustainable local development, not only at the level of defining a clear content of this concept and transcending the epistemological fluidity that it has printed within the literature and theoretical frameworks, which relied on its own tools and only dealt with partial and separate aspects of it, but also to provide practical tools that have made sustainable local development synonymous with analyzing a complex variety of development problems and developing comprehensive solutions to them.

according to this design, sustainable local development is based on a scientific base formed by the territory as a collective building, actors and networks of social relations and regional resources.

while building original and innovative paths for sustainable local development depends on the system of regional intelligence, social innovation and the sustainable local development project, where following the options and objectives of the actors and integrating the requirements of the present and future trends are self-sustaining elements for these paths.
