Rural lift

Do you have an idea that can make your locality even better to live and reside in? Bygdelyftet is our micro-support for associations and enthusiasts who want to try something new and contribute to a stronger local community. 

About the micro-support

Rural lift is one of our micro-supports. Micro-support means less administration and faster decisions compared to applying for leader support for a more extensive investment. The support is suitable for those who want to develop their locality with creative, sustainable, and locally anchored ideas – on a small scale but with great potential!

What can one apply for?

This micro-support is intended to test new solutions to local challenges. What does your locality need – you know best! To receive support, the project's results must benefit many.

You can, for example, apply for micro-support to:

  • Test new solutions that can strengthen the locality
  • Utilize local resources and expertise
  • Strengthen the identity and pride of the locality
  • Increase the quality of life for residents in the locality
  • Develop digital solutions
  • Encourage local initiatives for sustainable and creative solutions

Who can apply?

Non-profit associations, organizations, and local groups operating in the following municipalities: Markaryd, Älmhult, Ljungby, Värnamo, Sävsjö, Alvesta, and Växjö (outside the Växjö urban area).

 

When can one apply?

Applications are accepted continuously as long as there is money left to distribute. Decisions are made by a special decision group. You will receive a response from us within four weeks from the time we receive your application.

Contact us at the leader office before you start an application, we are happy to listen to your idea and guide you so that the application is done correctly.

Good to know:

The support should be used for your costs in the project except for ongoing operating costs, already started activities, or personal salary. We also do not provide support for investments. An investment is considered an asset that costs more than 24,000 kronor excluding VAT, and has a lifespan of more than three years. Contact us at
the office if you are unsure, and we will help you.

Maximum amount available for application: 24,000 SEK
