Leader in Europe
It is a program of the European Union, which emerged in the early 90s of the twentieth century, countermeasures to the growing problems of the European countryside: the dangers caused by mass development of extensive agricultural production, reducing the number of farms (especially those small family), the gradual desertification of rural areas, fading traditions and values of rural communities. The growing gap between the countryside and the city gave birth to the need to support rural development by the European Union. In this way, was the LEADER initiative. Name of LEADER is the acronym of the French name of the Liaison Entre Actions de Development de l? Economie Rurale, which means the relationship between measures of rural economic development, namely the cooperation between various actors in the countryside or rural development and its inhabitants.
In 1991 started the implementation of a new method consisting of multi-faceted rural development as a place not only agricultural production but also development of other sectors of the economy, a good place to live, preserving natural and cultural riches. Novelty of this approach was also extensive involvement of local residents in the development of his? Little homeland?.
This new form of action, with financial support from the EU budget quickly brought the desired results, proved to be an effective way to deal with the rural issues.
The method of the program can be effective when used rules LEADER:
-
Bottom-up approach- concepts of joint action, influencing the development of the area have come out from the same population ?local leaders?;
-
People involved in creating a vision to develop the area working in partnership, including planning and implementation of the representatives of three sectors: social, economic and public, who organize the Local Action Groups;
-
Integrated approach- manifests itself in combining operations, resources and development opportunities of representatives of different sectors. Activities so far begin to diffuse complement, stimulate;
-
A territorial approach is to find areas consistent in terms of geographical, economic, historical, cultural, natural micro-(and not administrative units) and building their local strategies taking into account their specific;
-
Innovation- experimentation, the search for new effective approaches and methods for integrated and sustainable development;
-
Local financing and management- means so that the funds for the development, implementation of local strategies to get a partnership, a group of persons cooperating for the development of his ?small homeland?;
-
Networking and cooperation between partnerships - joint projects, exchange of experience on a regional scale and international development and stimulates innovation and increases the impact LEADER-type approach.
Community Initiative, LEADER has been created and used as a kind of experiment but quickly found many supporters and triggered a huge potential in the European inhabitants of the village. Is now widely used in many European regions and gives visible results sustainable, integrated rural development. In the countries of the old 15 European Union operate 892 Local Action Groups in 73 programs. In nine countries are the national programs and in six - programs developed and supported by regional authorities.
Leader in Poland
Poland entered the European Union structures in 2004, when the LEADER + program (for 2000- 2006) was implemented, and only through the efforts of many institutions and organizations involved in rural development occurred a Pilot Program in the LEADER +. Institution responsible for the shape of this action is the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development while engaged in the implementation of the Foundation of Assistance Programs for Agriculture (FAPA).
The pilot program LEADER + has been divided into two phases- schemes. The first one carried out in late 2005 and in 2006 was designed to prepare local communities to work together to build the organizational framework in the form of Local Action Groups.
Villagers who want to work in mainstream leader must first know and understand the rules, then learn to work in partnership, carry out joint projects involving representatives of three sectors: social, economic and public life. A new form of action involving a comprehensive look at the area, not through the prism of their village or community, their institution or company but a much broader, addressing the needs of the wider community, and much more development possibilities. Therefore, the action PPL + in the first schema resources were used to build the structure of the LAG and the Integrated Rural Development Strategy. LAG could take the form of foundations, associations, or associations connection. The financial support for the establishment of LAGs could apply for and schedule local rural and urban-rural or their associations, legal persons: foundations, associations and unions and NGOs. LEADER + Pilot Program was implemented in rural communities or urban-rural, the area inhabited by 10 to 100 thousand inhabitants (an area of at least one seat). To the scheme joined 174 beneficiaries. In this scheme, did not participate, none of the municipalities, which then formed the Lower Vistula River Bend LAG.
