Consultation phases

The LEADER + strategy is based on a common sharing of intervention objectives and goals, which have to be the outcome of an agreement reached between local institutions and economic operators. 

I PHASE: March-July 2000
BROADENING THE PARTNERSHIP - CONCERTATION:  
DELTA 2000, together with the institutions, the social representatives, the organisational operators and opinion leaders has defined its intervention territory and strategy and identified common objectives. DELTA 2000 presents the first proposal of Local Development Plan for the Delta area of Emilia-Romagna. 

II PHASE: September 2000-May 2001
CONSULTATION ON THE TERRITORY: 
DELTA 2000 has organised a series of meetings with local private and public representatives in order to outline the strategy and objectives of the Development Plan for the Delta area and analyse local proposals. Targeted workshops were carried out on the spot to monitor local projects proposed by public and private operators. Besides the LAG organised public meetings, targeted meetings and information activities for the presentation of EU initiative LEADER +. This phase saw the direct involvement of local actors participating in 60 meetings with public and private representatives of the LEADER + area of the Provinces of Ferrara and Ravenna. The meetings were attended by a total number of 600 participants and more than 150 project sheets were analysed. 

III PHASE: June-December 2001
DRAWING UP THE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN:
The GAL is committed to identify guidelines, strategic approaches and eventual local interventions to implement the Regional Operational Plan and reflect local proposals. The Plan is agreed upon at local level by Public Institutions and community representatives, who approve the definition of the actions, the identification of the beneficiaries and the general outline of the Local Development Plan of the Delta in Emilia-Romagna, which will then be presented to the Regional Authority.  

IV PHASE: starting January 2002
