Collaborative projects

Projects can in some cases include several leader areas, these are then called collaborative projects. It should concern a concrete project idea and meet common needs. Collaborative projects can be carried out by

  • support recipients in a leader area who want to collaborate with one or more support recipients in other leader areas, within Sweden or the EU
  • one or more leader areas that want to collaborate, within Sweden or the EU

You can also have a preparatory collaborative project that involves searching for one or more partners in other leader areas. Those involved in a collaborative project must sign a collaboration agreement. 

Mini projects

What is a Mini project?

Mini projects are a simplified support within Leader Skåne Mitt Nordväst.

It is aimed at you who have an idea that can do something positive in your community – something that engages more people, creates community, strengthens participation, or enhances the opportunities of the place.

There are different mini projects, depending on which intervention area your idea fits into. Our strategy is available here

Who can apply?

– Non-profit associations, businesses (if the project is of public benefit), and individuals.

Agreement: if the mini project is approved, you will sign an agreement with us. The agreement specifies the conditions that must be met.

Note that the support is usually paid out in arrears against expense reporting.

Leader projects

For leader projects you can receive up to 100 percent funding for actual costs. You need to contribute to your leader project through your own engagement, often in the form of voluntary work or voluntary resources. You need to have at least three collaborating partners.

Feasibility study – Do you have a development idea but are unsure if it can be implemented? Then it may be appropriate to conduct a feasibility study to clarify the conditions for an implementation project. It is important to remember that each feasibility study application must address identified needs and lead to new knowledge that can be applied in practice.
