Citizen Participation: Residents are involved from
the beginning in the design, funding, and
implementation of projects. This gives them a sense of
ownership and responsibility, thus strengthening
their commitment and attachment to the community.
Training and Education: EL4DEV organizes
workshops and training sessions to help communities
acquire the necessary skills to actively participate in
projects. This includes technical, organizational, and
management skills, fostering inclusive participation.

Intercommunal Cooperation
•

Local and National Networks: By facilitating
cooperation between different communities and
municipalities, EL4DEV creates a strong network of
mutual support and learning. This allows
communities to share resources, knowledge, and
experiences to solve common problems.
