?Leader approach? and local public-private and civil territorial partnerships, in form of ?Local action groups? aim toward the development of rural areas by using local initiatives, activities, potentials and needs (so-called ?bottom up? ap proach) and by preparing and implementing local development strategies. This kind of approach toward the development of local rural communities has been present for a long time in rural politics and practice of most European countries. In Serbia, full legal basis to support implementation of this approach at national level has been established in 2019, and local stakeholders were not sufficiently informed with LEADER principles, especially in rural communities which were sparsely populated, poor and economically undeveloped. In the following years, one should expect the continuation of initiative support at national level, accredi tation of LEADER measure into IPARD III Program, as well as larger role of local territorial partnerships in initiating development and improvement of quality of life in rural communities.
