Peripheries as a challenge for Czech Republic: A Research Team from ECON MUNI Investigates the Causes of Regional Disparities
Researchers from ECON MUNI have joined a new research project focusing on geographical peripheries in the Czech Republic. They are building on the collaboration established within the SYRI National Institute and investigating why some regions lag behind in the long term, whilst others manage to prosper despite structural disadvantages. The aim is to better understand the mechanisms of marginalisation and to offer recommendations for public policies that can help reduce regional inequalities and strengthen social cohesion.
