Participative LEADER programme design

In 2019, the national rural network in Spain (REDR) initiated a comprehensive research process involving all 185 Spanish LAGs, REDR Steering Committee and all 11 Regional Networks to explore their views and aspirations for the new programming period (2021-2027). The findings of the research fed into the position paper ‘The future of LEADER 2021-2027’, which informed policy-decision makers.
