Partners also involved local communities in the planning and development of the activities to be implemented through the EASW methodology a Strategic Common Vision has been defined in each region. Case studies were selected and a report was realised. Operative plans and pilot key interventions were the main result of the participation processes. Finally a transnational local development methodology on rural development was defined. The Observatories of Municipalities were established in each participating region.
