The notion of intersectoral partnership is understood in terms of voluntary and
institutionalized cooperation between actors representing public, private and civic
sectors. The idea of partnership is related to the new approaches to regional and
local development across the European Union. One of the main fields in which
these approaches are implemented is the field of rural areas development, where
partnerships take the form of Local Action Groups (LAGs).
The paper discusses some aspects of partnership-based approach as imported to
Poland. The strengths and weaknesses of this approach will be exemplified by the
case of LAGs established in one of the Polish regions. Discussion is based on the
empirical data gathered by authors of the paper.
