Home to about 45% of the global population, rich in natural resources and ecosystems with a high value, rural areas play a key role in implementing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. However, some rural areas continue to face structural challenges, notably due to a combination of population loss and population ageing, making it more difficult to maintain their own living conditions. Enhancing the quality of life in rural areas is fundamental to reducing youth out-migration and ensuring that rural areas and communities remain attractive places to live and work. Based on Sen’s capability approach, we propose an integrated and dynamic model able to perform a spatial-temporal analysis of the quality of life in rural areas. The model was implemented in order to perform evaluations at a municipality level, considered the most appropriate spatial scale to analyse sub-regional disparities and increase the efficiency of rural development expenditures.

农村地区拥有全球约 45% 的人口，拥有丰富的自然资源和高价值生态系统，在实现联合国可持续发展目标方面发挥着关键作用。然而，一些农村地区继续面临结构性挑战，特别是由于人口流失和人口老龄化的结合，使得维持自己的生活条件更加困难。提高农村地区的生活质量对于减少青年外流和确保农村地区和社区仍然是有吸引力的生活和工作场所至关重要。基于 Sen 的能力方法，我们提出了一个综合的动态模型，能够对农村地区的生活质量进行时空分析。实施该模型是为了在市一级进行评估，
