Rurb.mn Leverages Rural-Urban Connections

December 7th, 2009 by Bjorn Arneson

Rurb.mn, a project spearheaded by Minnesota Rural Partners and USDA Rural Development, is gearing up for a 2010 launch.

“After many weeks of meetings, we have gathered a great team of  people and organizations to help on the Rural Urban Partnering project, including the good folks at MinnPost.com, the University of Minnesota Morris Center for Small Towns, the K-12 Interactive Television (ITV) regional coordinators, Governor’s Workforce Development Council, Minnesota Workforce Council Association,  the Minnesota Learning Commons, the Regional Sustainable Development Partnerships, and the Healthy Foods, Healthy Lives Institute.”

They are seeking input from anyone who cares about rural communities (that’s you!) and those with ideas for programming. Contact rurb.mn at feedback@rurb.mn.
