Urban – rural linkages: During the implementation of a “local development strategies” (LEADER approach) many changes have taken place in order to facilitate the local group of action to be sufficient and practical flexible. The supervisor of the local programme, as Artemios Chatziathanasiou being (2012 – 2015), has to check the aspects of these changes. Many times the check focuses on specific Actions (L 321, L323) where the municipal entities and institutions are domain. In these cases any modification/ adjusts e.g. of the financing templates demands the assessment and check of potential synergies. This concerns the Operational Programmes of Municipalities or the annual action plans of various municipal entities (culture non - profit enterprises).
