A Northern Irish Local Action Group (LAG), North East Region LAG, are seeking co-operation partners. The topics of interest are food & cultural tourism, enhancing environmental capacity and farming & access to land.

Food & Cultural Tourism

To tie in to the existing strong tourism product in the region the LAG wish to develop a co-operation project that would develop best practice in how to give the area a distinctive food and cultural ethos

Enhancing environmental capacity

The LAG wish to look at how the Rural Development programme process and funding could be best used to help businesses and communities to adapt to the needs of a low carbon economy.

Farming and access to land

Under this theme the LAG would like to develop a co-operation project that would work with farmers and landowners, particularly on uplands, to look at how the recreational use of land by walkers, climbers and other social users can be complementary to traditional farming practices.
