2. Based on your own experience, have you ever
wondered why certain local communities perform better
than others and how this phenomenon affects territorial
disparities?
And how to change it?
3. Lost ‘power of place’ – Increasing territorial
disparities
“Complex problems”
Demography – Education – Remoteness – Employment, which problems
interact and generate ‘vicious circles’ that reproduce and amplify the
phenomenon of area based poverty and exclusion
Unbalanced development policies
Economic devaluation of the peripheral territories and lack of interest on
“small scale” development in close relation to exclusion of poor and
vulnerable
Lost local capability to mobilize endogenous socio-economic-
environmental resources and/or absorb external resources
4. Regional (territorial) development bottlenecks
Lacking
participation, action, strategy and programme sustainability on local
level;
unified data/monitoring/organization system, network building,
knowledge products and pools
coordination in planning and implementation of programmes and
projects and a gap between national and sub-national/local level
managerial and operational capacity either to plan or to implement
complex public policies on national and sub-national level;
political/administrative weight necessary for coordinating the
different ministries and administration potentially involved in Roma
inclusion policies
Sectoral, fragmented (instead of integrated funding and institutional
frames) and short-term, project oriented approach (instead of
financing long term complex processes)
5. Consequences for ‘Territorial’ consequences
individuals
human capacity for local
lost self-confidence and trust in
development is lacking, while
future perspectives
exclusion and discrimination is
low ambition, inactivity, depression growing, which causes lack of
lost “local knowledge” and “life- absorption confers serious social
management” skills and economic problems
low qualifications and working skills infrastructural and institutional
aid dependency coverage is weak
growing feeling of exclusion and lack of services
discrimination limited information access
increasing health and family- exquisitely high unemployment
problems (including problems with weak “voice”
drug and alcohol) widespread practice of usury and
increasing criminality
… and the victims: 1 million people, 10 % of the people live in disadvantaged
areas in Hungary.
7. The “holy trinity” of the
Community-led Local Development
‘Area’
‘Partnership’
and
‘Strategy’
8. ‘Legal empowerment’ suggests that the communities living
out of mainstream create the necessary services and our
job is to legalize them and make them effective
Ensure that we have a
person/company
running utilities
People, families or small
communities could
become their own
supplier via use of
renewable and micro
grids
9. KEYS to inclusive local development
Target group must
be the actor of local
development +
Area-based approach
Both top-down and bottom-up
in character
Community level
intervention for
Three-partite Partnership
Management and Financing
Integrated and Multi-sectoral
approach – Linkage between Inclusive
actions
Innovation
National and trans-national
Development
Cooperation and Networking
10. Capacity is development!
Local animation - External coaching to mobilize local resources and bring
innovation
Global -grant - ‘Learning by doing’ to develop local skills and partnerships
through ‘action’
Social organization – From self-help to social and economic integration
Local Inclusion Centre - Creating focal point for localizing development .
Serving as information, training, CD, monitoring and evaluation hub for the
pilots, opened for others too
Built and functioning development network and communication channels of
the pilots opened for others too
Increase the absorption area based – Generating, financing and
implementing flagship projects and creating future action plan
Provide model to other regions and programmes
Across borders over political and professional border lines
13. Strategy is not the first and it is
not a paper
Participatory actions
Mapped and re-organized (local) resources
(assessment)
Partnerships and projects will born
Strategy – it is a process
Multi-level networking and
Local development and inclusion centre
