A területi identitás helyi fejlesztésének építése: a LEADER cselekvési terv megvalósításának tanulságai Közép-Európában

International audienceThe presentation focus on the local development model supported by the European rural policy and implemented for more than ten years in Central European countries. The LEADER model is based on the capacity of local communities to design development strategies and to build potentially valuable territorial resources in a competitive way. The implementation of the LEADER model gives the opportunity to analyse the role of territorial identity in the process of local development and conversely the impact of collective public action on the consolidation of territorial identity. The analysis is based on a research project that was carried on from 2008 to 2012 in close cooperation with researchers from the Centre for regional studies, located in Pécs, Hungary
