The LEADER initiative has had an undeniable impact on shaping rural
development policies across broad areas of Spain. Ever since its launch in 1991, it
has been one of the most successful pillars of development intervention in rural areas,
especially in more deprived parts of the country such as Andalusia and Extremadura.
In this chapter we make a comparative analysis of the programme’s impact over the
period 2007–2013, and analyse the levels of investment and of public funding in the
different projects and measures. We also assess their spatial distribution in order to
draw conclusions as regards the effects of LEADER on each region.
