Local Action Group rural development initiatives

Overview

Local Action Groups (LAGs) are being utilized across various regions to drive rural development and community investment through specialized funding programs.

In Montenegro, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management has opened official registration for LAGs. This initiative, supported by the IPARD III program and the LEADER approach, aims to unite local governments, farmers, and entrepreneurs to develop regional strategies and small-scale projects, such as rural tourism and local product promotion.

In Romania and Moldova, LAGs are actively facilitating community and business investments. In Romania, a specific funding call for creating new jobs has concluded, offering non-reimbursable funds to support local start-ups. Meanwhile, in Moldova, the Movila Măgura LAG has implemented 85 projects totaling over 10 million lei, funding initiatives ranging from sanitation machinery to playgrounds and business equipment.
