Good Practices for the Development of Cooperation

Episode Summary

As part of the Interterritorial Cooperation Project “Development of Cooperation,” four examples of good practice in cooperation are presented.

The “Development of Cooperation” project focuses on strengthening cooperative entrepreneurship in rural areas and promoting the Social Economy and social innovation more broadly through the creation of local ecosystems of mutually supportive organisations.

The project was implemented within the framework of CLLD/LEADER — Community-Led Local Development and involved 11 Local Action Groups from across Greece, covering Achaia, Drama, the Dodecanese, Epirus, Thessaloniki, Karditsa, Parnassos, Parnonas, Rhodope and Trikala. The Development Agency of Karditsa acted as the coordinating partner.
