The State of Vorarlberg on the Internet

The Regional Agricultural Authority Bregenz is the State agency responsible for the Leader+ Program Vorarlberg. The Leader+ Program is a so-called community initiative of the EU for rural regions.  Its tasks include mainly the coordination of the appropriation and subsidisation procedures and maintaining a close connection with the administration authority in Vienna. The so-called Local Action Group (LAG) is an important platform for approving projects and there is constant contact with this group. For more details go to http://www.leader-vlbg.at.
