Funded by EuropeAid and led by the Association of Local Democracy Agencies (ALDA), LADDER is an ambitious 3-year-project aiming at raising awareness and strengthening the capacity of associations of local authorities and civil society organizations to act in a sustainable way as drivers for development. The aim is to foster their role of multipliers within their countries, communities and networks in order to develop a multi-level active engagement in global challenges. Stay tuned to find out more on what AER has already planned for 2015!
