The film about Leader

We are Leader Sweden!

Non-profit engagement is about people coming together around an idea and working together to achieve something they think is important. When this happens, the conditions for sustainable and attractive areas are created. But even if the cooperation and the will to develop are there, the money may not always be there. Then Leader can be an opportunity.

To Leader Sweden

What is Leader?

Local commitment is the foundation

Leader is a method for rural development with local roots, initiative and commitment at its core. The idea is that development of the place you live in is best carried out by those of you who live and work there – by you, your association, local businesses and other organisations.
