The notion of intersectoral partnership is understood in the paper in terms of vol-untary and institutionalized cooperation between stakeholders representing public, private and civic sectors. The idea of this kind of partnership is related to new ap-proaches to regional and local development in the European Union. One of the main fields in which these approaches are implemented is the field of rural areas develop-ment, where partnerships take the form of Local Action Groups (LAGs). The paper discusses selected aspects of the partnerships’ functioning, basing on an analysis of opinions expressed by their individual members in the Sub-Carpathian region.
