Abstract

For 25 years, the LEADER approach has contributed to incorporate new principles to recent theories of neoendogenous rural development. For this Initiative, an analysis of the projects has been made that, having initially been approved, were not finished, in order to know the profile of the promoters, types of investment, and main causes of their failure. The files not executed during the period 2002-2008, from the Local Action Groups of the province of Granada, have been consulted, and exhaustive interviews, both with the technicians and the managers of such groups, they have been carried out. The projects analized show a prevalence of the private entrepreneur over the public, and the young and new entrepreneurs compared to those from other groups. Among the main final causes of failure are: inadequate planning and funding, not being able to provide the demanded documentation in time, and the rigidity, in terms of time and bureaucratic requirements, of such programmes.
