LEADER Strategy
LEADER is involved in the design and delivery of a Local Development Strategy (LDS) for County Louth.
The Local Development Strategy is a community-led plan, developed and driven by rural communities through the Louth Local Community Development Committee, to address the locally identified needs and to achieve a defined set of local objectives.
During the public consultation process in Autumn 2015, participants were specifically invited to comment on each of the Rural Development Programme Themes and Objectives and meant that all funding decisions that will be taken by the Louth Local Community Development Committee are underpinned by the Local Objectives and Actions contained in the County Louth Local Development Strategy (Section 4).
The foundations for this plan build on previous programmes and initiatives and draws heavily from the current trends identified in the socio-economic and demographic analysis, the review of the challenges and successes experienced in the previous programme round, and by those people most in need that did not have the opportunity to benefit.
