Och eis Lëtzebuerger LEADER-Gruppen engagéiere sech an transnationale Projeten iwwer d‘Grenzen ewech. 🇪🇺

Zum Beispill d‘Regioun Mëllerdall mam Projet Yu&Me Europe. Den EU CAP Network huet dëse Projet an sengem Artikel opgegraff.
Demnächst wäert den innovative Mentoring-Programm zu Lëtzebuerg ulafen a Jonker a méi aler op innovativ Manéier zesummebréngen.

What makes a LEADER Transnational Cooperation project more than the sum of its parts? What do LAGs achieve through cooperation that they would not if they worked on their own? 🤝

We asked 3 ‘champions of cooperation’ to share their experiences and reflections on successful cooperation projects.

Transnational cooperation can come in many forms and shapes – small- and large-scale, and between neighbouring countries and across wider geographical distances – with some common ingredients for success:

- a close link to the LAGs’ strategies
- the choice of concrete and common actions around a specific topic
- proper planning and care for the partnership

🇱🇺 Austausch an europäesch Zesummenaarbecht stoungen am Juni bei enger Studierrees vu LEADER Wëlle Westen a LEADER Zentrum Westen an Ueweréisträich am Mëttelpunkt. 🇪🇺 🇦🇹

🤝Hei hu sech déi 7 transnational Partner vum Projet Slow Trips 3.0 ënnert der Leedung vum Office régional de tourisme (ORT) Guttland zu engem intensiven Austausch getraff.

🌱Wärend zwee gemeinsame Workshops goufen déi geplangten Aktivitéiten an déi weider Zesummenaarbecht vum Projet festgeluecht. Nieft der Aarbecht huet d'Rees awer och vill inspiréierend Ablécker a regional Best-Practice-Beispiller an nohalteg Tourismusofferen an der LEADER Region Urfahr West gebueden.

❤ Den häerzlechen Empfang vun eisen éisträichesche Partner hunn dës Studierrees zu engem besonneschen Erliefnis gemaach.

🇬🇧 Exchange and European cooperation were at the heart of a study visit by LEADER Wëlle Westen and LEADER Zentrum Westen to Upper Austria in June. 🇪🇺 🇦🇹

🤝The 7 transnational partners of the Slow Trips 3.0 project came together under the coordination of the Office régional de tourisme (ORT) Guttland for an intensive exchange.
🌱 During two joint workshops, the partners discussed the planned activities and agreed on the next steps for further cooperation within the project. Beyond the working sessions, the visit also offered plenty of inspiring insights into regional best-practice examples and sustainable tourism initiatives in the LEADER Region Urfahr West.

❤The warm welcome from our Austrian partners made the study visit a particularly memorable experience.

Op wat sinn d‘Netzwierker am landleche Raum houfreg? Fortsetzung vum EU CAP Network senger Serie mat engem Bäitrag aus Malta.

🤝 campaign 2026 | Maltese National Network

What is the Maltese National Network proud of for this year?

The Maltese National Network supported the Managing Authority with the training intervention carried out under the Rural Development Programme.

During the Malta Network meeting in December, beneficiaries who had taken part in the training and advice measures shared their experiences and presented what had been achieved through this support.

The meeting helped showcase the concrete value of training and advice for farmers, while giving beneficiaries the opportunity to exchange directly with other rural development stakeholders.

Thanks to these funds, a large number of farmers received training and advice, helping strengthen knowledge, skills and capacity across the agricultural sector.

🇱🇺 Chaos am Märcheland – e volle Succès zu Klengbetten!

📱🦉Wat geschitt, wa bekannte Märchefiguren op eemol an enger moderner Welt voller Smartphones an Tablets landen? D’Kannerstéck „Chaos am Märcheland“ vum Theaterveräin Rido85 huet de Public de 27. an 28. Juni 2026 am Hispic zu Klengbetten mat op eng witzeg Zäit-Rees geholl.
D’Theaterstéck gouf als LEADER-Mini-Projet am Kader vum Umbrella-Projet „Kultur a Fräizäit“ vun der LEADER-Regioun Zentrum Westen ënnerstëtzt. Dës Initiativ erméiglecht enger Rei Veräiner a lokalen Organisatiounen, méi kleng Projeten einfach an onkomplizéiert ëmzesetzen.

🎭 Zéng Kanner hu sech wärend e puer Woche mat der Regisseurin Annette Wagner op hiren Optrëtt virbereet. Si hunn net nëmmen hir Rolle geléiert, mee zesumme mam Romaine Neuen och aktiv um fantasievollen Dekor matgeschafft.

🎟️ Déi zwou Virstellunge waren e grousse Succès. Wéinst der grousser Begeeschterung gouf d’Stéck e puer Deeg méi spéit fir e puer Schoulklasse gespillt.
💪Nieft der flotter kultureller Offer fir d’Regioun, stoung och d’Entwécklung vun de jonke Schauspillerinnen a Schauspiller am Mëttelpunkt. Si konnten hiert Selbstvertraue stäerken, hir Kreativitéit ausliewen, als Ekipp zesummewuessen an éischt Erfarungen op der Bün sammelen.

👏 Eis Felicitatioun u Rido85 an e grousse Merci un d’Kanner fir hiert grousst Engagement!

🇫🇷 Chaos am Märcheland – un véritable succès à Kleinbettingen !

📱🦉 Que se passe-t-il lorsque de célèbres personnages de contes de fées se retrouvent soudainement plongés dans un monde moderne rempli de smartphones et de tablettes ? Les 27 et 28 juin 2026, la pièce pour enfants « Chaos am Märcheland » (Chaos au pays des contes) , présentée par l’association de théâtre Rido85 au Hispic à Kleinbettingen, a entraîné le public dans un amusant voyage à travers le temps.
La pièce a bénéficié du soutien de la région LEADER Zentrum Westen en tant que mini-projet, dans le cadre du projet-cadre « Culture et loisirs ». Cette initiative permet à plusieurs associations et organisations locales de réaliser facilement et sans lourdeur administrative des projets de petite envergure.

🎭 Pendant plusieurs semaines, une dizaine d'enfants ont préparé leur représentation avec la metteuse en scène Annette Wagner. Ils ont non seulement appris leur rôle, mais ont également participé activement, aux côtés de Romaine Neuen, à la création d’un décor plein de fantaisie.

🎟️ Face au grand succès, la pièce a été reprise quelques jours plus t**d devant plusieurs classes scolaires.

💪 Au-delà de l’offre culturelle proposée à la région, le projet visait avant tout l’épanouissement des jeunes comédiennes et comédiens. Ils ont pu renforcer leur confiance en eux, exprimer leur créativité, apprendre à travailler en équipe et faire leurs premières expériences sur scène.

👏 Toutes nos félicitations à Rido85 et un grand merci aux enfants pour leur formidable engagement !

🤝 campaign 2026 | Belgium: Flemish Network

What is the Flemish Network proud of for this year?

In mid-May 2025, the Flemish Network organised a two-day LEADER exchange in Boxtel, the Netherlands, together with Dutch colleagues.

The meeting entitled 'Learning from each other and collaborating without borders,' brought together around 60 participants from Flanders and the Netherlands, including LAG managers, LAG members, Managing Authorities and project promoters.

For two days, one question guided the exchange: how can LEADER areas and rural regions inspire and strengthen each other?

Held in the Dutch LEADER region “Het Groene Woud”, the meeting showed the value of sharing experiences across borders. It also highlighted how LEADER continues to mobilise people, ideas and regions.
