The local action group

Miselerland

Set up in 2003, the local action group LEADER Miselerland, with its 48 members from 14 municipalities and 34 organisations from all sectors of society, reflects the make-up of the region. In order to provide the framework for supporting and implementing a variety of projects, the LAG works out a regional development strategy that is adjusted every 7 years to accommodate social developments. To this end, its members convene four times per year to discuss project concepts and proposals. The LAG’s work and organisation are governed by an agreement . Reports are written on every LAG meeting.

The amount of funding depends on the dimension of a project and can be as much as 100%. The European Agricultural Fund, the Luxembourgish Ministry of Agriculture and the municipalities in the region contribute one-third of the funding amount respectively. Cooperation between the Ministry of Agriculture and the LAG Miselerland is governed by an agreement.

Members

14 municipalities, 2 public institutions and 32 private organisations make up the members in the LAG Miselerland. Each member appoints a delegate and, if possible, a deputy delegate who actively participate in the LAG meetings and form an important link between the LAG and individual member institutions.

The General Assembly consists of all 48 LAG members who elect the 15 members of the Committee (6x municipality + 9x other organisations). The Committee decides with a simple majority but can only make decisions if at least 8 members are present while the private sector has more votes than the public sector.

The delegates of all 48 members are invited to each meeting. Each delegate has the right to participate in discussions but only the 15 members of the Committee make the decisions regarding projects.

Since the LAG has no legal statute and its members are only linked by an agreement, one organisation has to act as the leading partner to assume responsibility for finalising administrative and financial matters. Since the establishment of the LEADER LAG Miselerland, the Luxembourg Wine-growers Association and its President, Marc Weyer, has adopted this role. The President of the Wine-growers Association is automatically the President of the LAG Miselerland.

Further important positions are as follows:

  • President: Marc Weyer (Fédération des Associations Viticoles) 

  • Vice-President: Raymond Gloden (Hëllef fir d’Natur) 

  • Vice-President: Nathalie Neiers (ORT Moselle asbl) 

  • Diversity Officer: Harry Briel (Yolande asbl) 

  • Financial Officer:  Josiane Zeimet (Entente touristique asbl)
