It is a process in which villages plan, project and realize at on the activities are leading to permanent improvement of lifestyle. At the same time the villages try to conserve their specific features and they support increase of new healthy generations. The basic principle of the Program of village restoration is an increased human activity – individual and communal one. The well-development European countries realize this kind of program about 20 years. In Slovakia, it is realized since the January 1st, 1998 – after the publication of "Methodological measures to the village restoration program in Slovakia, in conditions and rules of participating villages". The state takes part in this program either by partial financing the activities for starting and promotion of this process, or indirectly by means of specialized organizations – Slovak Environmental Agency and Agency for Rural Development leading the Program of village restoration from methodological point of view.
