摘要：Sustainable development represents an equitable development model for which the mainconcern is achieving a balance between economic growth and raising the quality of life through the use ofnatural resources within the planet’s tolerable limits. The sustainable development of community spaces is inthe pursuit of preserving the right to access resources for future generations through their equitable use,keeping the excavation rate lower than the regeneration rate for renewable resources, and the excavation rateof non-renewable resources not exceeding their substitution rate. On the other hand, regional developmentimplies the diversification of economic activities by supporting investments in the private sector with thepurpose of lowering the unemployment rate towards increasing quality of life using different measures in fieldlike: developing the small and medium-sized enterprises sector, the transfer of knowledge and education, ruraldevelopment, quality of the surrounding environment, health and infrastructure. The regional developmentpolicy encourages the stimulation of a balanced growth of our territory by lowering the existing imbalancebetween regions at the current moment and by reducing the possibility for it to appear. Furthermore, theregional and rural growth of Romania in the context of sustainable development is a short term process. Dueto the specificity of Romanian agriculture, predominantly subsistence farming, the inadequate structure andmain factor that limits agricultural competitive growth, it implies a closer look over the social sector.Therefore, two major action plans are asserted, firstly developing connective activities in the rural space andthe integration into the labour market of the people engaged into agriculture, and secondly the growth ofagribusinesses by supporting measures that target the creation of associations towards increasing theefficiency of Romanian agriculture
