Beskrivelse af organisationen

The Local Action Group (LAG) Asón-Agüera-Trasmiera is a non-for-profit organisation: an association of 17 rural municipalities and over 40 civil society organisations in Eastern Cantabria (Spain). Founded in 1996, its main lines of activity are the management of the Rural Development Programmes of the Government of Cantabria in the area (LEADER approach), the management of the Tourism Information Office, the assistance in the field of self-employment
grants, the information and support to applications for a large array of other grants, training and, finally, the management of the European InfoPoint.

The main target group of these activities is the local population of the area (around 34,500 inhabitants), but also any person or organisation interested in living, visiting, working, investing, etc. in any of the 17 municipalities comprised in the LAG.

All decisions are taken by the assembly (where all members of the association are represented) and the board of directors (comprised by 11 members, elected by the assembly). The LAG has a manager, a LEADER technician, two administrative assistants, two Tourism officers and a European InfoPoint officer.
