Cooperation between LAGs and FLAGs from Croatia, Slovenia and Italy

Based on the cooperation agreement signed in late 2015 between LAGs and later FLAGs from Istria, Kvarner, Gorski Kotar, Brkin and Kras, last week a meeting of partners was held with the aim of further networking and planning of future joint projects. Given the delayed start of the call for tenders from the domain of rural development of all three involved countries – Croatia, Slovenia and Italy – this was a good opportunity to exchange experiences on the allocation of funds to end users. The meeting has served as a summary of activities so far, and it has been established that the Agreement has already put the first results on partnerships in the projects while discussing the interests and topics for future cooperation. The next coordination partner will be held at the end of the year in Croatia.
