LEADER funding

Leader programme helps to support rural communities across the European Union to actively engage and to direct the local development of their area, through community-led local development.

The leader programme is administered at a local level by 29 local action groups, which contain local representatives from the community, public and private sector. Each group is responsible for selecting and awarding LEADER funding to projects within their geographical area.
