Summary/Abstract: A number of socio-economic phenomena can be observed in rural areas, among which one must include the diminishing role of agriculture as a source of income for rural residents as well as high unemployment. The people previously associated solely with agricultural holdings frequently take action toward changing their sources of income, including developing small enterprises. A very important role in these processes is played by local governments, which can activate entrepreneurship through their policies. This article aims to represent the state of entrepreneurship in the area of a rural municipality and to indicate the possible forms of its activation from the level of local government bodies and with the use of aid programs. This article is a case study, while the rural municipality of Dąbie, located in Lubuskie Province, was chosen as a research object. The research proceeding implemented both secondary and primary sources of information.
