Building on Lessons Learnt

Considerable diversity and depth of experience has developed in the European Network for Rural Development (ENRD) and national rural networks (NRNs) during the 2007-2013 programming period and there are many important and useful lessons to be learnt that can be built upon for the forthcoming 2014-2020 programming period. There are also relevant lessons to be learnt from other networks – both EU and non-EU financed.

The following sub-sections provide guidance to these lessons learnt. You may also find it useful to refer to the experiences and previous lessons learnt from networking in the LEADER+ programme. [PDF ]
