Abstract

In recent years, the concept of local development through collaborative action has gained global prominence. This study focuses on the Central Dobrogea Local Action Group (GAL-DC) in Romania, examining its project-based associative framework. The study involved a questionnaire administered to 177 participants in Central Dobrogea, with data analysis using SPSS. Findings reveal complex patterns of public engagement, with GAL-DC demonstrating extensive influence and positive engagement with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and Local Action Groups (LAGs). Residential distribution highlights GAL-DC's wide reach, while variations in political engagement reflect diverse involvement. NGO engagement suggests openness to participation, and sector priorities emphasize the significance of agriculture, the food industry, and commerce for local development.
