PARTICIPANTS
Territorial Approach to local development (TALD)
Conceptual framework of the REBUILD training curriculum
Territorial Approach to Local Development (TALD) designates development that is endogenous and spatially integrated, leverages the contribution of actors operating at multiple scales and brings incremental value to national development efforts.
endogenous ---> Each region has a specific "Territorial Capital" that is different from other territories, and translates into an advantage in terms of effects generated for specific investments that are more appropriate to the area and therefore take advantage of its assets and potentialities more effectively
spatially integrated ---> Local development can be promoted at multiple levels (i.e. local, urban, metropolitan, regional, national and supra-national) and requires cooperation between the various levels
incremental ---> The promotion of solidarity processes at local and international level makes it possible to develop networks of actors, integrate approaches and share good practices. The encounter between innovative experiences of local development matured both in the context of Trentino as well as in that of the different Libyan realities opens the field for comparison and exchange between different visions and approaches, allowing to highlight the positive elements of each of them in a dialogue among the actors of the different countries in a process of continuous redefinition and adaptation of local development strategies.
