The rural parts of Croatia are full of natural wealth, but unfortunately the increasingly present depopulation of these areas leaves untapped potential. Residents of rural areas are predominantly elderly, due to the fact that young people migrate to urban areas for education or employment. Most residents have large agricultural areas, which often remain neglected due to circumstances that prevent them from working on them. The reasons can be various, but in most cases it is a lack of finances or a lack of manpower. The principle of a social factory would mobilize the population to use agricultural resources with facilitated circumstances. The factory would be located in the vicinity of the town of Drniš. Drniš is located in the Dalmatian hinterland. As a central point at a distance of 33 kilometers from Sibenik and 24 kilometers from Knin, and belongs to the Šibenik-Knin County. The City of Drniš itself covers 335 square kilometers and is surrounded by 27 settlements. Residents would be able to produce in the range of their capabilities, without the burden of financial costs and distribution. The factory itself would be built in harmony with nature, with minimal impact on the environment, using natural and renewable materials in order to save energy. A holiday home would also be built as an additional source of income. By using natural materials such as wood, we ensure less damage to the environment, recyclability, greater resilience and easier sustainability. The installation of solar panels would use solar energy for water heating and electricity supply. This project is in line with development strategies at the county, national and European levels, which aim to revitalize the rural area, through the promotion of social inclusion, poverty reduction and economic development. This pilot project would bring positive changes for the residents of rural areas. The development of rural areas helps to preserve local identity, traditions and customs, protects the environment, strengthens indigenous, traditional and ecological production on the basis of sustainable development.
