  9. Contribution to regional and local development: Case of the Basque Country Characteristics of the intermediate entity: • GARAPEN, theBasque Association of Development Agencies, was founded in 1992 and actually groups 25 Development Agencies of the three Basque Provinces. • The phenomenon of the Local Development Agencies arises in the Basque Country at the beginning of the 80s, when the municipal governments tried themselves to palliate the high rate of unemploy-ment produced by the serious industrialist crisis of the region. • In 1984 was created the first Basque Development Agency, also the pioneer at state level, and it was followed by many others, fomented from the municipal level and thanks to the support of the Regional Government and the Provincial Councils. • GARAPEN was born in this context, to satisfy the need of an institution able to become a common place for all the agencies, a place where to exchange information, to offer support and to take advantage of the best of each Agency for the benefit of all of them.

  10. Contribution to regional and local development: Case of the Basque Country Characteristics of the intermediate entity: • Regarding the participation of GARAPEN as intermediate entity in this RFO, where the key is the development of a co-operative work model through local-regional agents, the most important argument is that GARAPEN guarantees local participation. • GARAPEN ensures this local participation in the Basque Region, since with the set of services of the associate agencies practically guarantees 90% coverage of the Basque population. • GARAPEN is the unique local actor, whose presence supposes a multiplying effect in the actions and policies by its territorial multicapillarity. GARAPEN through their agencies works in multiple areas, meaning a cross-sectional presence in regional development. • The Agencies belonging to GARAPEN’s experience of Urban Observatories can be used as a platform for updating Information to the Visualisation System, as well as becoming the most important instruments for strategic management of the territory.
