  6. Some lessons learnt about bottop-up and top-down… • Bottom-up-approaches work fine within smaller projects, but projects with many partners and cooperation projects often need an impulse and/or coordination from superordinate institutions! • Such coordination can be provided by LAG-Management, but also from programme administration (example: LEADER-Manager in Bavaria) • To make a suggestion or to coordinate does not necessarily mean, that it is a „top-down“ project! • The discussion of bottom-up and top-down is a question of scale and a question on intensity of participation.
