What is LINC?

LINC is an annual meeting of LAGs (Local Action Groups) which combines European exchange of experience with sport events and European culinary. LINC is an initiative from LAGs and National Network Units for rural development in Austria, Germany, Estonia and Finland.

The programme of the LINC2019 should help practitioners to find answers to the questions they are facing in their daily work. Our activities are focused on networking, communication, exchanging ideas, best practises and seeking solutions for the future.

The slogan of the conference is:

  • Get informed - distribution of appropriate information
  • Get inspired - mutual learning from each others’ valuable experience
  • Get involved - learn about each others’ versatility

“LINC” stands for: LEADER - Inspired - Network - Community
