Why LEADER? LEADER is an innovative approach developed to enable local communities to participate in their own local development processes.
Development plans decided at regional or national level are implemented with a top-down approach. On the other hand, LEADER, which is an area-based and bottom-to-top approach; It started as the practice of “bringing together” resources, stakeholders, different development ideas and projects at the local level and proved to be an ideal implementation tool.
This approach means that local actors participate in the decision-making processes regarding the projects to be implemented and the strategies to be implemented in their local regions. In this context; partnerships called local action groups (LAGs) are encouraged to be set up by the representatives of public, private and non-governmental organizations.
Public-private partnership and implementation of LDS can strengthen regional harmony and contribute to the long-term sustainable development of a region.
How Does LEADER Operate?
LEADER has been planned to be an effective tool for local development. It works based on the idea that the needs of the local can be best determined and solved by the local actors themselves.
That is why, the activities in LEADER are planned by Local Action Groups (LAG). Each LAG prepares a Local Development Strategy (LDS) for its field of work.
LAG is a group of stakeholders living in rural areas that come together for the preparation of the Local Development Strategy (LDS) and has the status of an association. LAG is a partnership of public, private sector and non-governmental organizations.
A LAG; consists of
- Local Public Authorities (Municipalities, Social Assistance and Solidarity Foundation, Chambers)
- Private Sector (Natural person taxpayers, Farmers, Companies, Cooperatives and Unions)
- NGO (associations and foundations) representatives.
LEADER aims cooperation among the local action groups and to unite under the Rural Network to achieve this. It is based on implementing innovative actions and multi-sectoral designs when preparing strategies for development.
Local Development Strategy;
- is prepared by a LAG with a participatory approach.
- explains the solutions developed against local problems, local development goals, and the activities to be implemented to achieve these goals.
- Each LDS includes a financial plan showing disbursement amounts and sources of expenditure.
- The implementation period for the already submitted LDS’s is 3.5 years.
Where is LAG established?
A Local Action Group is established for an activity area that is rural and contains integrity in terms of economic activities. The activity area (in Turkey) is selected at the district level in order to ensure ease of management and identification. In the LAG field;
- Sufficient human resources and financial and economic resources should be provided
- Total population must be between 10,000 and 150,000 people
- The population of settlement areas included in LAG and LDS's should not be over 25,000.
- One area should not belong to more than one LAG; there should be a single partnership, strategy and area.
