Local Action Groups are important entities creating the development of rural areas. The aim of the research was to evaluate the effectiveness of Local Action Groups in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Province in terms of implementing the 2007-2013 Rural Areas Development Programme. Additionally, an attempt was made to identify the barriers and limitations identified in the execution of the programme LEADER 2007 - 2013 in terms of implementing a new instrument, 2014-2020 Rural Areas Development Programme “Community-led local development”. The analysis involved data provided by the Marshal's Office, e.g. the number of projects executed divided into respective actions, the budget used, involvement of the entities and the number of new jobs. There was also performed an individual in depth interview with the use of survey questionnaire with the director of the Department of Rural Areas Development, the most essential institution responsible for Rural Areas Development Programme project implementation in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Province. The research demonstrated that Local Action Groups showed a high level of activity in project execution, thus enhancing the local development, including, at the same time, the local communities. Considering the occurrence of problem areas identified in the previous period, attention was paid to the new period 2014-2020 to e.g. the adequacy of objectives of Local Development Strategies to identify the needs and the method of determining the measures of effectiveness for the projects executed. Finally, it will be important to focus on an increased involvement of the local community, leader training and teams implementing Local Development Strategies.
