Rural living is endangered by decreasing competitiveness of local agricultural and industrial production. The countryside has been depopulating, in better case changing to holiday resorts, in worse becoming desolate. Return to traditional ways of farming, household, and crafts or implementation of new methods of environment-friendly exploration of the countryside and local resources (both natural and human) can bring a number of positive impacts. It can directly influence the local economic climate by creating new jobs, and also act as a tool of enhancement of the attractiveness of the area as a tourist destination what can imply demand for additional services. Environment-friendly sustainable management of the countryside has multiple positive influences to both local people and visitors and – in a broader context – to keeping of cultural and natural variety.
