Multi-funded CLLD: Background paper and outcomes of EU CAP Network workshop
This paper provides an overview of the use of multi-fund Community-led Local Development (MFCLLD) in 2014-20 and the experiences made with the framework. It also provides an overview of how MFCLLD will continue in 2023-27.
For this paper, MFCLLD is understood as combining more than one of the four eligible funds within the same Local Development Strategy (LDS). If a LAG is merely a beneficiary of a given fund, this is not classified as multi-fund. The focus is, unless otherwise specified, on MFCLLD combining the EAFRD with at least one other fund: EMF(A)F, ERDF, ESF(+).
The perspective is rural, but additional information on non-rural combinations is also included where appropriate. Sources include previous research on CLLD, a central analysis of 28 CAP strategic plans (CSPs), an online survey of CSP Managing Authorities (MAs) in all Member States (38 responses from national and regional authorities in 22 countries), semi-structured interviews with representatives of several Member State authorities and organisations (AT, CZ, DE, EL, PL, SI), and written exchanges with practitioners, including CSP MAs, ERDF/ESF MAs, national coordination bodies, National Networks, LEADER associations, etc.
