  1. Leader approach in 2007 – 2013 in SR Jela Tvrdoňová

  2. Slovak rural areas, what we are speaking about? • No official definition But: • 85% of the total surface of the SR • 48% of the total population SR • 95,2% of the total number of villages: 2.745 out of 2883

  3. Why we need the integrated rural development in the SR (SAU Nitra, typology of rural areas /OECD/ - 2000)

  4. Why we need the integrated rural development in the SR (SÚ SAV – regional study, 2004)

  5. Current instruments for RD – „de facto“ horizontal • Horizontal, national coverage and create the equal starting line for all in spite of various socio-economic, geographical and natural conditions in particular regions • Intervene on the project level rather that on local program level • The beneficiary is one subject defined by law • Local development program can use these sources only in very unsustainable way Example – SAPARD program, Sector operational program for agriculture and rural development, Plán for rural development

  6. How these instruments behaved in regions? And how they supported rural areas? Program SAPARD: Western Slovakia: 466 supported projects (60%), in volume 99.484 tis.EUR (58%) Middle Slovakia: 146 supported projects (19%), in volume 21.612 tis. EUR (22%) Eastern Slovakia: 166 supported projects (21%), in volume 20.072 tis. EUR (20%)

  7. How these instruments behaved in regions? And how they supported rural areas? Sector Operational Program SOP PRV: Western Slovakia: 599 supported projects (55,3%), in volume94.978 tis. Eur (60,1%), MIddle Slovakia: 252 supported projects (23,2%), in volume 31.842 tis. Eur (20,2%) Eastern Slovakia: 232 supported projects (21,5%), in volume 31.031tis. Eur (19,6%)

  8. Reasons? East and central Slovakia absorbed less, because:: • Not enough beneficiaries • Those existing are doing business in less favourable socio-economic and geographical conditions • Do not coply with strickt national socio-economic criteria • No able to take loan • Not able or do not want to coply with general conditions within their specific context

  9. Need for the instruments to support area based integrated development instrument In order to improve the situation we need the instrument to support the integrated, area based/endogeneous rural development approach

Principles • Inovative approach towars rural development • Needs, problems and solutions are in hands of local people - „Bottom up“ • Natural identification of the territory • Intersector partnership – local action group in Leader • Participation • Interactiv approach – experts with people rather than for people • Integrated approach – all areas of life • Strategic approach – long-term wise and sustainable programming of the development • Preferable use of local reasources • Suitable instruments

  11. What does it mean – integrated rural development? • Sustainability in all aspects • Decisions are in hands of local people and they are in line with investments • Strengthen civil society – responsibilty for development lies on many more people • Investments in order: – 1.builodng capacities, 2. public goods, 3. private investments
